Last modified

CVE-2026-126356 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.3/10 on the CVSS scale. Hono is a Web application framework that provides support for any JavaScript runtime. From 4.5.1 until 4.13.16, validator('form') uses a strict whole-header pattern that fails to recognize multipart/form-data when its Content-Type includes another legal parameter or extra whitespace after a semicolon.

Description

Hono is a Web application framework that provides support for any JavaScript runtime. From 4.5.1 until 4.13.16, validator('form') uses a strict whole-header pattern that fails to recognize multipart/form-data when its Content-Type includes another legal parameter or extra whitespace after a semicolon. The validation callback receives an empty object even though c.req.parseBody() or c.req.formData() can still parse and expose all submitted fields to the handler. An unauthenticated client can therefore bypass allow-list or required-field checks when the application relies on the form validator and its callback accepts an empty object. application/x-www-form-urlencoded requests are not affected. This issue is fixed in version 4.13.16.
