@astrojs/node: Backslash-prefixed paths not recognized as internal by trailing-slash redirect
CVE-2026-59730GHSA-r557-wffq-wvrc
What to do
Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (@astrojs/node 11.0.2), 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.
Impact With trailingSlash: 'always' configured, the @astrojs/node standalone server's static file handler appends a trailing slash to request paths and issues a 301 redirect. Paths beginning with /\ (slash-backslash) were not recognized as internal paths, so the handler would echo the raw path back in the Location header. Because browsers treat \ as / per the WHATWG URL specification, the resulting redirect could resolve to an external host. Preconditions: - trailingSlash: 'always' must be set (non-default; the default is 'ignore') - The request path must not have a file extension in its final segment - An attacker must deliver the crafted link to a user Patches Fixed by treating backslash-prefixed paths the same as //-prefixed paths in isInternalPath(), so they are no longer rewritten with a trailing slash. Workarounds Use the default trailingSlash: 'ignore' setting, which does not issue trailing-slash redirects in the static file handler. References - WHATWG URL spec: backslash…

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-59730 Advisory: @astrojs/node: Backslash-prefixed paths not recognized as internal by trailing-slash redirect IDs: CVE-2026-59730, GHSA-r557-wffq-wvrc Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-59730 (revision 3, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 13:01 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Low (CVSS 2.1) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: @astrojs/node 11.0.2. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - npm @astrojs/node: affected >= 8.1.0, < 11.0.2; fixed in 11.0.2 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `npm ls @astrojs/node --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 @astrojs/node. - 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://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-r557-wffq-wvrc (OSV record GHSA-r557-wffq-wvrc lists affected ranges: npm @astrojs/node >=8.1.0 <11.0.2 (fixed)) - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-r557-wffq-wvrc (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-r557-wffq-wvrc lists affected ranges: npm @astrojs/node >=8.1.0 <11.0.2) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
