How to Fix CVE-2026-25754
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected @adonisjs/bodyparser dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
npm install @adonisjs/bodyparser@10.1.3
npm install @adonisjs/bodyparser@11.0.0-next.9
Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
npm ls @adonisjs/bodyparser
How to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2026-25754, inspect your project dependencies using npm:
npm ls @adonisjs/bodyparser
Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of @adonisjs/bodyparser in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 10.1.3), your application is affected.
Note: The npm ls @adonisjs/bodyparser command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.
Technical Details
Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis
This vulnerability is classified under CWE-1321: Improperly Controlled Modification of Object Prototype Attributes ('Prototype Pollution'), where the product receives input from an upstream component that specifies attributes that are to be initialized or updated in an object, but it does not properly control modifications of attributes of the object prototype. In @adonisjs/bodyparser, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

"summary" : "AdonisJS multipart body parsing has Prototype Pollution issue",
"details" : "### Description\n\nA Prototype Pollution vulnerability (CWE-1321) in AdonisJS multipart form-data parsing may allow a remote attacker to manipulate object prototypes at runtime. This impacts `@adonisjs/bodyparser` through version `10.1.2` and `11.x` prerelease versions prior to `11.0.0-next.8`. This issue has been patched in `@adonisjs/bodyparser` versions `10.1.3` and `11.0.0-next.9`\n\n### Details\n\nAdonisJS parses `multipart/form-data` requests via the BodyParser package. During multipart parsing, form field names are used to construct plain JavaScript objects representing the parsed request body.\n\nDue to insufficient validation of multipart field names, specially crafted fields containing reserved property names such as `__proto__`, `constructor`, or `prototype` could be assigned directly to objects created during parsing. This allows an attacker to pollute object prototypes, potentially affecting other parts of the application that rely on these objects.\n\n**The vulnerability is limited to multipart request parsing and does not affect JSON or URL-encoded body parsing.**\n\n### Impact\n\nExploitation requires an application endpoint that accepts and parses `multipart/form-data` requests.\n\nIf exploited, prototype pollution may lead to unexpected application behavior, logic bypasses, or security issues depending on how polluted objects are later consumed. The severity of the impact depends on application logic and usage patterns of the parsed request data.\n\n### Patches\n\nFixes targeting v6 and v7 have been published below.\n\nUsers should upgrade to a version that includes the following fix:\n- https://github.com/adonisjs/bodyparser/releases/tag/v10.1.3\n- https://github.com/adonisjs/bodyparser/releases/tag/v11.0.0-next.9",
