SCA: security update for nuxt (GHSA-7c4v-fwgw-9rf7)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 445947

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Nuxt versions >= 4.4.7 and < 4.5.1, and >= 3.21.7 and < 3.21.10, contain an information disclosure
vulnerability in the development server's Chrome DevTools workspace endpoint (GET /.well-
known/appspecific/com.chrome.devtools.json). The endpoint's local-request gate (isLocalDevRequest) is
header-based and trusts the attacker-supplied Host header rather than the connected peer address. When the
dev server is bound to a network-reachable interface (e.g. nuxt dev --host) and
experimental.chromeDevtoolsProjectSettings is enabled (the default), an unauthenticated attacker on the
LAN can send a request with a spoofed Host header and no browser-specific headers (Sec-Fetch-Site, Origin,
Referer) to retrieve the project's absolute filesystem root path (rootDir) and a persistent per-project
workspace UUID. Production builds are unaffected. Fixed in 4.5.1 and 3.21.10. (CVE-2026-72744)

Solution

Update the nuxt library and its related packages to version 3.21.10 or later.
