{"id":"GHSA-9w97-2464-8783","summary":"Electron: Use-after-free in download save dialog callback","details":"### Impact\nApps that allow downloads and programmatically destroy sessions may be vulnerable to a use-after-free. If a session is torn down while a native save-file dialog is open for a download, dismissing the dialog dereferences freed memory, which may lead to a crash or memory corruption.\n\nApps that do not destroy sessions at runtime, or that do not permit downloads, are not affected.\n\n### Workarounds\nAvoid destroying sessions while a download save dialog may be open. Cancel pending downloads before session teardown.\n\n### Fixed Versions\n* `41.0.0-beta.7`\n* `40.7.0`\n* `39.8.0`\n* `38.8.6`\n\n### For more information\nIf there are any questions or comments about this advisory, please email [security@electronjs.org](mailto:security@electronjs.org)","aliases":["CVE-2026-34772"],"modified":"2026-04-06T23:19:57.917173Z","published":"2026-04-03T02:41:23Z","database_specific":{"github_reviewed_at":"2026-04-03T02:41:23Z","nvd_published_at":"2026-04-04T00:16:18Z","cwe_ids":["CWE-416"],"severity":"MODERATE","github_reviewed":true},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/security/advisories/GHSA-9w97-2464-8783"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-34772"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"electron","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/electron"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"38.8.6"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/04/GHSA-9w97-2464-8783/GHSA-9w97-2464-8783.json"}},{"package":{"name":"electron","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/electron"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"39.0.0-alpha.1"},{"fixed":"39.8.0"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/04/GHSA-9w97-2464-8783/GHSA-9w97-2464-8783.json"}},{"package":{"name":"electron","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/electron"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"40.0.0-alpha.1"},{"fixed":"40.7.0"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/04/GHSA-9w97-2464-8783/GHSA-9w97-2464-8783.json"}},{"package":{"name":"electron","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/electron"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"41.0.0-alpha.1"},{"fixed":"41.0.0-beta.7"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/04/GHSA-9w97-2464-8783/GHSA-9w97-2464-8783.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:L"}]}
