CVE-2026-59868

The CVE-2026-59868 Issue: js-yaml (JavaScript YAML parser/dumper) is vulnerable when merge keys are enabled. From versions 5.0.0 up to 5.2.0, a chain of mappings using merge keys can cause quadratic CPU time on documents that grow linearly, leading to DoS under some inputs. A fix was released in ...

CVE-2026-59869 js-yaml: YAML merge-key chains can force quadratic CPU consumption

js-yaml is a JavaScript YAML parser and dumper. From 3.0.0 before 3.15.0 and from 4.0.0 before 4.3.0, js-yaml can spend quadratic CPU time parsing a document whose size grows only linearly when a chain of mappings uses merge keys where each mapping merges the previous one. This issue is fixed in...

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions js-yaml versions 5.0.0 through 5.2.0 Description Support for the !!omap tag in YAML11 SCHEMA within src/tag/sequence/omap.ts uses the omapTag.addItem function to perform a linear duplicate-key scan during every insertion. This results in On^2...

js-yaml: js-yaml: Denial of Service via crafted YAML ordered-map document

A flaw was found in js-yaml, a JavaScript YAML YAML Ain't Markup Language parser. An attacker could exploit this by providing a specially crafted YAML ordered-map document. This could lead to excessive CPU consumption, resulting in a denial of service DoS for applications processing the malicious...

js-yaml: js-yaml: Denial of Service via crafted YAML merge keys

A flaw was found in js-yaml, a JavaScript YAML parser and dumper. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by providing a specially crafted YAML document that repeatedly uses the same alias in a merge sequence. This can lead to algorithmic CPU exhaustion, causing the Node.js worker or eve...

PraisonAI Vulnerable to Remote Code Execution via YAML Deserialization in Agent Definition Loading

SummaryThe AgentService.loadAgentFromFile method uses the js-yaml library to parse YAML files without disabling dangerous tags such as !!js/function and !!js/undefined. This allows an attacker to craft a malicious YAML file that, when parsed, executes arbitrary JavaScript code. An attacker can...
