HighCVSS 7.5/10Last modified Sep 2, 2026

Description

A vulnerability exists in NGINX JavaScript where a malformed HTTP response received by ngx.fetch() can crash an NGINX worker when trusted JavaScript reads Response.statusText. Exploitation requires control or influence over the fetched HTTP response.

Impact: This vulnerability may allow remote attackers to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) on the NGINX system. There is no control plane exposure; this is a data plane issue only.

Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
