fast-uri is a URI parser for Node.js. It decodes percent escapes in a hostname during parsing and then decodes the parsed hostname a second time during authority recomposition, so a single call to normalize or resolve can turn nested percent-encoded input into a different network destination such as a loopback hostname or address. For example, a doubly encoded host that spells out a loopback name decodes to that live host in one operation, which contradicts RFC 3986 section 2.4 that an implementation must not decode the same string more than once. An application that normalizes or resolves an untrusted HTTP-family URI before outbound routing, redirect validation, or a host-policy check can receive a destination different from the one the original encoded host represented, giving a server-side request forgery and host-policy bypass primitive. This is an incomplete-fix variant of CVE-2026-6322. The affected versions are 2.4.1 up to but not including 2.4.5, 3.1.2 up to but not including 3.1.6, and 4.0.0 up to but not including 4.1.3. The issue is fixed in 2.4.5, 3.1.6, and 4.1.3, which normalize percent escapes once and preserve encoded percent signs. Users should upgrade to a patched version.

How to fix CVE-2026-75899

What to do

Three questions, each answered from this record only. Confirm the vendor advisory before you patch.

Should you patch?

No confirmed exploitation is on record for CVE-2026-75899. EPSS is 0.22%. Act only if a listed version of fast-uri is a URI is installed.

Which versions are affected?

Compare what you have installed with 8.12.0~ds+~2.1.1-5, 8.17.1~ds+~3.0.1+~3.1.0-1, 8.17.1~ds+~3.0.1+~3.1.0-2, 0 → 8.20.0~ds+~cs7.1.4-1. Compare the installed version with the linked vendor advisory before you change production.

What should an analyst verify?

CWE-174; CWE-918: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). EPSS 0.22%. There is no CISA KEV listing. No Exploit-DB or Metasploit reference is linked. Use the source links for the original advisory.
