CVE-2026-46430

Algernon is a small self-contained pure-Go web server. Prior to 1.17.7, the SSE event server bound to 0.0.0.0:5553 on Linux/macOS by default because the platform-dependent host default in engine/flags.go:39-46 set host = "" for non-Windows, and utils.JoinHostPort"", ":5553" resolves to ":5553"...

CVE-2026-46431

Algernon is a small self-contained pure-Go web server. Prior to 1.17.7, the SSE event server's Access-Control-Allow-Origin response header was hardcoded to the wildcard regardless of the caller's Origin. Because EventSource does not preflight and does not send cookies, the wildcard is sufficient ...

CVE-2026-43981

Algernon is a small self-contained pure-Go web server. Prior to 1.17.6, in engine/luahandler.go, the sync.RWMutex protecting LoadCommonFunctions is released before L.Push and L.PCall execute. Since gopher-lua's LState is explicitly not goroutine-safe, concurrent requests race on the shared state...

CVE-2026-43982

Algernon is a small self-contained pure-Go web server. Prior to 1.17.6, uploadedFileSaveIn in lua/upload/upload.go uses filepath.Join with the caller-supplied directory but performs no boundary check after joining. A directory of ../../../tmp resolves cleanly to /tmp, outside the web root. This...

CVE-2026-45721

Algernon is a small self-contained pure-Go web server. Prior to 1.17.7, when Algernon is asked for any URL path that resolves to a directory without an index file, DirPage walks upward through parent directories — past the configured server root — looking for a file named handler.lua to execute a...

CVE-2026-45728

Algernon is a small self-contained pure-Go web server. Prior to 1.17.7, when Algernon is invoked with a single file path instead of a directory, singleFileMode is set to true and debugMode is forcibly enabled. debugMode activates the PrettyError renderer, which on any Lua or template error respon...

CVE-2026-48126

Algernon is a small self-contained pure-Go web server. Prior to 1.17.8, when algernon is started with --domain or --letsencrypt, which silently turns on --domain at engine/flags.go:372, the request handler resolves the served directory by joining the configured --dir with the value of the...

Race Condition

Overview github.com/xyproto/algernon/engine is a Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Race Condition. in the handle process due to the sync.RWMutex being released before L.Push and L.PCall execute. An attacker can cause Lua VM corruption or unpredictable server behavior by making...

Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere via the engine/flags.go process, which causes the SSE event server to bind to all network interfaces by default on Linux and macOS. An attacker can access sensitive event data by connecting to the...
