{"id":"CVE-2025-58754","aliases":["GHSA-4hjh-wcwx-xvwj"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2025-58754","summary":"Axios is vulnerable to DoS attack through lack of data size check","details":"Axios is a promise based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js. When Axios starting in version 0.28.0 and prior to versions 0.30.2 and 1.12.0 runs on Node.js and is given a URL with the `data:` scheme, it does not perform HTTP. Instead, its Node http adapter decodes the entire payload into memory (`Buffer`/`Blob`) and returns a synthetic 200 response. This path ignores `maxContentLength` / `maxBodyLength` (which only protect HTTP responses), so an attacker can supply a very large `data:` URI and cause the process to allocate unbounded memory and crash (DoS), even if the caller requested `responseType: 'stream'`. Versions 0.30.2 and 1.12.0 contain a patch for the issue.","published":"2025-09-12T01:16:40.513Z","modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:29.104387658Z","cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"axios","fixedVersion":"1.12.0"},{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"axios","fixedVersion":"0.30.2"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/axios/axios/commit/945435fc51467303768202250debb8d4ae892593","label":"axios/axios@945435f"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/axios/axios/releases/tag/v0.30.2"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/axios/axios/releases/tag/v1.12.0"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/58xxx/CVE-2025-58754.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/axios/axios/security/advisories/GHSA-4hjh-wcwx-xvwj"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-58754"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/axios/axios/commit/945435fc51467303768202250debb8d4ae892593"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/axios/axios/commit/a1b1d3f073a988601583a604f5f9f5d05a3d0b67"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/axios/axios/commit/c30252f685e8f4326722de84923fcbc8cf557f06"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/axios/axios/pull/7011"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/axios/axios/pull/7034"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-12T03:51:29.104387658Z"}}
