Quasar Framework: App Vite build cleanup can recursively remove unsafe configured output directories
CVE-2026-106109GHSA-q9mq-245r-4g93
What to do
Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (@quasar/app-vite 3.3.0), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
Summary @quasar/app-vite recursively removes build.distDir before producing build artifacts. The configured path was made absolute, but it was not checked before removal. A configuration mistake could therefore target the project root, user home directory, a filesystem root, or another directory outside the project. Details The build command and mode builders passed the resolved output directory directly to fs-extra recursive removal. Existing symlink ancestors were not resolved before deletion either, so a path that appeared to be inside the project could operate on a directory outside it. quasar.config is trusted application code, and no attacker-controlled input reaches build.distDir by default. This issue is primarily destructive-build safety hardening. It can become a security boundary when build configuration is generated or influenced by less-trusted automation. Impact Running a normal Quasar build with an unsafe build.distDir can delete data accessible to the build user…

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-106109 Advisory: Quasar Framework: App Vite build cleanup can recursively remove unsafe configured output directories IDs: CVE-2026-106109, GHSA-q9mq-245r-4g93 Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-106109 (revision 4, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 13:06 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Medium (CVSS 4.1) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: @quasar/app-vite 3.3.0. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - npm @quasar/app-vite: affected >= 1.0.0, <= 3.2.0; fixed in 3.3.0 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `npm ls @quasar/app-vite --all`: lists every installed copy and version, including transitive ones. Run in the project root after `npm ci`. ## Supported action Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on @quasar/app-vite. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-q9mq-245r-4g93 (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-q9mq-245r-4g93 lists affected ranges: npm @quasar/app-vite >=1.0.0 <=3.2.0) - Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-q9mq-245r-4g93 (OSV record GHSA-q9mq-245r-4g93 lists affected ranges: npm @quasar/app-vite >=1.0.0 <3.3.0 (fixed)) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
