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 1.0%, percentile 64: FIRST’s model estimates a 1.0% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 64% of all scored CVEs (moderate). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
  • Editorial verdict: Patch this week. Next.js: Windows, AVIF and next/og RCEs (Aug-Sep 2026) — Self-hosted Next.js apps still below 15.5.24 or 16.3.3 should upgrade now, ideally straight to the October releases; Windows hosts and apps optimizing untrusted AVIF images are the urgent cases.

What it is

Satori is a library to convert HTML and CSS to SVG. Starting in version 0.0.27 and prior to version 0.33.5, Satori does not properly escape certain values before including them in generated SVG output. This can allow crafted values to be interpreted as SVG markup. The impact depends on how the generated SVG is consumed. Version 0.33.5 contains a patch. No complete workaround exists besides upgrading. Applications that cannot immediately upgrade should not render attacker-controlled content with Satori.

Weakness type: CWE-116.
