Description
PapaParse before 5.7.1 contains an inefficient algorithmic complexity vulnerability that allows remote unauthenticated attackers to cause denial of service by submitting delimiter-free quoted CSV input to Papa.parse(). Attackers can supply a single-column quoted CSV with no delimiters, triggering repeated full-buffer indexOf scans per row that grow quadratically with input size, exhausting CPU and blocking the Node.js event loop or freezing a browser tab.
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Identify every host running the affected component and compare the installed build against the fixed version below — for source-built or distro-packaged software the version string, not a lockfile, is the source of truth (`dpkg -l`, `rpm -q`, or the binary's own `--version`).
Remediation status
The records we use list no fixed release for CVE-2026-127056. Check the upstream advisory for a patched version, and apply the exposure-reduction steps below in the meantime.
Mitigate without a patch
Cap what an attacker can consume: apply request size, rate and timeout limits in front of the affected component, and run it with memory and CPU limits so exhaustion degrades one worker rather than the whole service.
