Should you act?
Normal patch cycle
No exploitation signal; fix it in your next routine update if you are affected. This signal is computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS data; it is not an editorial verdict.
- No confirmed exploitation. It is not in CISA’s KEV catalog and CISA’s SSVC assessment records no known exploitation. That can change quickly after a public write-up; re-check if you are affected.
- EPSS 0.3%, percentile 20: FIRST’s model estimates a 0.3% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 20% of all scored CVEs (low). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Needs a user to click or open something. Phishing makes that realistic, but it is not wormable.
- Editorial verdict: Patch this week. Node.js July 2026 Security Releases: HTTP/2 and 11 CVEs — Routine but real: upgrade every supported Node.js line this week, sooner if you terminate HTTP/2 in Node or rely on the Permission Model as a sandbox.
What it is
A flaw in Node.js node:sqlite allows a stale StatementSyncIterator created through DatabaseSync#createTagStore() to continue executing a cached prepared statement after it has been reset and rebound with new parameters. SQLTagStore resets cached statements using sqlite3reset() directly, bypassing the iterator invalidation mechanism introduced for StatementSync in recent releases This vulnerability affects Node.js 22.x, 24.x, and 26.x.
Weakness type: CWE-367.
