Description

The @quasar/ssl-certificate development utility caches a combined PEM containing a generated private key and certificate without explicitly restricting its filesystem permissions. On systems with a typical process umask, the PEM can be readable by other local users. A local attacker with filesystem access could copy and reuse the private key to impersonate a development TLS endpoint in an environment that trusts the certificate.

The generated certificate was also unnecessarily CA-capable and included broad key usages beyond its localhost HTTPS purpose. Its IPv6 loopback entry was encoded as a DNS name rather than an IP subject alternative name.

The remediation writes and repairs the cached PEM with owner-only permissions on supported platforms, generates a non-CA server-auth leaf certificate with constrained key usage, corrects the IPv6 loopback SAN, and bases cache expiry on content modification time so permission metadata changes cannot extend the certificate lifetime. This issue does not expose the key remotely by itself; exploitation requires another local user to be able to read the cached PEM file.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for @quasar/ssl-certificate, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update @quasar/ssl-certificate to 2.1.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-106105 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
