CVE-2026-59868

A flaw was found in js-yaml, a JavaScript YAML parser and dumper. When merge keys are enabled, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a YAML document where a chain of mappings uses merge keys, each merging the previous one. This can lead to a significant increase in CPU ti...

CVE-2026-59869

js-yaml (JavaScript YAML parser) is affected by a resource-consumption issue in merge-key chains that can cause quadratic CPU time as documents grow linearly. Affected versions are 3.0.0–3.14.x and 4.0.0–4.2.x; the issue is fixed in 3.15.0 and 4.3.0. Impact is described as high availability (A:H)...

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...

Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-53550

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available. - js-yaml is a JavaScript YAML parser and dumper. Prior to 4.2.0 and 3.15.0, a crafted YAML document can trigger algorithmic CPU exhaustion in js-yaml merge-key...

js-yaml is a JavaScript YAML parser and dumper. Prior to 4.2.0 and 3.15.0, a crafted YAML document can trigger algorithmic CPU exhaustion in js-yaml merge-key processing by repeating the same alias many times in a merge sequence. This causes quadratic parse-time behavior relative to input size an...

JS-YAML: Quadratic-complexity DoS in merge key handling via repeated aliases

Summary A crafted YAML document can trigger algorithmic CPU exhaustion in js-yaml merge-key processing by repeating the same alias many times in a merge sequence. This causes quadratic parse-time behavior relative to input size and can block a Node.js worker/event loop for seconds with a relative...
