DEBIAN-CVE-2026-8711
NGINX JavaScript has a vulnerability when the jsfetchproxy directive is configured with at least one client-controlled NGINX variable (for example, $http, $arg_, $cookie*) and a location invoking the ngx.fetch() operation from NGINX JavaScript. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted HTTP requests. This may cause a heap buffer overflow in the NGINX worker process leading to a restart. Additionally, attackers can execute code on systems with Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) disabled or when the attacker can bypass ASLR. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
