CVE-2026-72925
MediumCVSS 6.1Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk9th percentile - higher than 9% of all known CVEs
Summary
SWC is a TypeScript / JavaScript compiler written in Rust. Prior to @swc/html 1.15.47-nightly-20260729.1 and swc_html_minifier 59.0.0, the minifyJson processing in crates/swc_html_minifier/src/lib.rs parsed and serialized attacker-controlled JSON in application/json and application/ld+json script elements without the escape_json_for_html_script behavior to re-escape less-than signs, allowing a closing script sequence to terminate the element early and execute script in the generated page's origin. This issue is fixed in @swc/html 1.15.47-nightly-20260729.1 and swc_html_minifier 59.0.0.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can inject and execute script in the context of the generated page, potentially leading to XSS attacks and user data theft.
Recommendation
Update @swc/html and swc_html_minifier to patched versions and avoid minifying untrusted JSON in script elements.
