Prior to @xmldom/xmldom versions 0.8.15 and 0.9.12, and in xmldom versions 0.1.5 through 0.6.0, appendElement in lib/sax.js uses _copy to clone the complete currentNSMap for each nested element that declares a new namespace prefix. Keeping every ancestor map live on the parse stack creates quadratic peak namespace-map storage, so a small highly compressible XML document can exhaust the process heap before application validation. This issue is fixed in @xmldom/xmldom versions 0.8.15 and 0.9.12; no fixed version is available for xmldom.","published":"2026-09-01T15:17:39.887","modified":"2026-09-01T15:17:39.887","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":null,"affectedPackages":[],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/commit/954370f58c046223faf95ba77efcbc8ce014409d","label":"xmldom/xmldom@954370f"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/commit/954370f58c046223faf95ba77efcbc8ce014409d"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/commit/dabffe884e864eeecb1f515c716f875e1bc47ec1"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/pull/1071"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/pull/1072"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/releases/tag/0.8.15"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/releases/tag/0.9.12"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/security/advisories/GHSA-965w-775f-mr7g"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","NVD","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-09-01T15:17:39.887"}}
