CVE-2026-126210

@hono/node-server allows running the Hono application on Node.js. Prior to 1.19.18 and from 2.0.0 until 2.1.6, the server passes a raw request-target containing a backslash in its path to the WHATWG URL parser, which treats the backslash as a path separator and resolves dot segments. A reverse proxy, load balancer, or web application firewall that preserves the backslash and applies path-based rules to the original request can therefore permit a request that the application normalizes to a blocked route. This lets an unauthenticated client reach route content that the upstream component was intended to deny, while Hono application access controls are unaffected because they operate on the normalized path. This issue is fixed in versions 1.19.18 and 2.1.6.

Affected products and versions

NVD has not supplied machine-readable vulnerable CPE product/version entries for this CVE. This is an information gap, not proof that no products are affected. Check the vendor advisory references below.

Remediation & validation

  1. Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
  2. Review the linked vendor security advisory or patch notes. Upgrade to a vendor-confirmed fixed release; do not infer a fixed version from the CVE description.
  3. Until patched, consider restricting network access or disabling the affected feature where operationally safe. These are temporary controls, not a substitute for a vendor fix.
  4. Validate the remediation with a version check and vulnerability rescan, then retain change evidence.

No fixed version is displayed unless it is explicitly established by a vendor advisory. Follow the vendor's release notes for exact product and branch applicability.
