Last modified

CVE-2026-62857 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.8/10 on the CVSS scale. Fedify is a TypeScript library for building federated server apps powered by ActivityPub. From version 1.2.0 through the affected 1.9, 1.10, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 maintenance lines, getNodeInfo() follows an attacker-controlled links[].href value from /.well-known/nodeinfo without scheme, redirect, or private-address validation, allowing requests to loopback, link-local, cloud metadata, and private-network services and returning their response bodies. EPSS estimates a 0.42% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
