{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-34601","details":"xmldom is a pure JavaScript W3C standard-based (XML DOM Level 2 Core) `DOMParser` and `XMLSerializer` module. In xmldom versions 0.6.0 and prior and @xmldom/xmldom prior to versions 0.8.12 and 0.9.9, xmldom/xmldom allows attacker-controlled strings containing the CDATA terminator ]]\u003e to be inserted into a CDATASection node. During serialization, XMLSerializer emitted the CDATA content verbatim without rejecting or safely splitting the terminator. As a result, data intended to remain text-only became active XML markup in the serialized output, enabling XML structure injection and downstream business-logic manipulation. This issue has been patched in xmldom version 0.6.0 and @xmldom/xmldom versions 0.8.12 and 0.9.9.","modified":"2026-09-14T17:02:31.295702333Z","published":"2026-04-02T18:16:31.933Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-34601"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-34601"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"node-xmldom","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/node-xmldom?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.8.6-1","0.9.10-1","0.9.10-2","0.9.11-1","0.9.12-1","0.9.5-1","0.9.6-1","0.9.8-1","0.9.8-2","0.9.9-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-34601.json"}},{"package":{"name":"node-xmldom","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/node-xmldom?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.9.10-1","0.9.10-2","0.9.11-1","0.9.12-1","0.9.6-1","0.9.8-1","0.9.8-2","0.9.9-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-34601.json"}},{"package":{"name":"node-xmldom","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/node-xmldom?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.9.9-1"}]}],"versions":["0.9.6-1","0.9.8-1","0.9.8-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-34601.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N"}]}
