From 1.15.0 until 1.20.0, Axios shouldBypassProxy applies a quadratic trailing-dot regular expression to redirect hostnames. HTTP_PROXY or HTTPS_PROXY is configured, NO_PROXY or no_proxy is non-empty, redirects are followed, and a crafted redirect Location contains many dots followed by a non-dot character. Hostname.replace(/.+$/, '') backtracks quadratically while processing the crafted redirect hostname. Synchronous regular-expression processing can block the Node.js event loop and cause denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 1.20.0.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.\n\n## Package advisory (CVE-2026-101906)\n\nAffected packages:\n\n- `axios >= 1.15.0, < 1.20.0`\n\nPatched in:\n\n- `axios 1.20.0`\n\nSource: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-mghh-pgcx-3jjj\n\n## Vendor advisories\n\n- **Red Hat VEX** · Important · affected: Red Hat Hardened Images · no fix planned: Red Hat Hardened Images · updated 2026-09-28 · [vex](https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-101906.json)\n- **RHSA-2026:74871** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Hardened Images · released 2026-10-02 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:74871)\n- **RHSA-2026:74869** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Hardened Images · released 2026-10-02 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:74869)\n- **RHSA-2026:74872** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Hardened Images · released 2026-10-02 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:74872)","depth":"midnight","depthScore":57,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":45.1,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":12,"ransomware":0},"changes":[{"seq":212127,"id":"CVE-2026-101906","ts":1790626843798,"field":"exploit_available","old":"false","new":"true"}]}
