CVE-2026-22864

Deno is a JavaScript, TypeScript, and WebAssembly runtime. Before 2.6.0, node:crypto doesn't finalize cipher. The vulnerability allows an attacker to have infinite encryptions. This can lead to naive attempts at brute forcing, as well as more refined attacks with the goal to learn the server secrets. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.6.0.

A vulnerability in Deno before version 2.7.5 allows a remote WebSocket server to crash the Deno process by sending a response with Sec-WebSocket-Protocol or Sec-WebSocket-Extensions headers containing non-printable ASCII bytes (0x80-0xFF). The flaw is due to improper parsing of these headers, causing a panic that terminates the entire process.

In Deno prior to 2.8.1, the process.loadEnvFile() function does not honor environment permission restrictions (--deny-env). It allows writing variables from a .env file into the process even when environment access is denied.

In Deno prior to 2.8.1, when a WebSocket connection was opened, only the destination hostname was checked against --deny-net rules, but the IP addresses that hostname resolved to were not re-checked. An attacker-controlled script could use a specially crafted domain name that passes the hostname check yet resolves to a denied IP, bypassing the network restriction entirely.

In Deno prior to version 2.8.1, the fetch() function checked the destination hostname against --deny-net rules but did not re-check the resolved IP addresses. An attacker-controlled script could use a specially crafted domain name that passes the hostname check yet resolves to a denied IP, bypassing network restrictions entirely.
