SCA: security update for i18next-http-backend (GHSA-3cmx-xjww-583x)
low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 477801
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- i18next-http-backend is a backend layer for i18next that loads translation resources in Node.js, browsers,
and Deno. Prior to 4.0.4, interpolateUrl inserts unencoded language and namespace values into loadPath or
addPath templates without rejecting ampersand (&), equals (=), or semicolon (;) query separators. When a
template places lng or ns in the query string and an attacker controls that value, the attacker can add or
override parameters on browser or server-side translation requests, potentially exposing other namespaces
or tenants or changing backend behavior through the application's network position and credentials. This
vulnerability is the result of an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-41691. This issue is fixed in version 4.0.4.
(CVE-2026-118258)
Solution
Update the i18next-http-backend library and its related packages to version 4.0.4 or later.See Also
