Security Impact
CVSS: 6.1
The security impact metrics below are parsed directly from the CVSS v3.1 vector string (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N).
How to Fix CVE-2026-34405
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Nuxt og image 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 nuxt-og-image@6.2.5
Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
npm ls nuxt-og-image
How to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2026-34405, inspect your project dependencies using npm:
npm ls nuxt-og-image
Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Nuxt og image in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 6.2.5), your application is affected.
Note: The npm ls nuxt-og-image command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.

"details" : "**Product:** Nuxt OG Image \n**Version:** 6.1.2\n**CWE-ID:** [CWE-79](https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/79.html): Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation\n**Description:** Incorrect parsing of GET parameters leads to the possibility of HTML injection and JavaScript code injection.\n**Impact:** Client-Side JavaScript Execution\n**Exploitation condition:** An external user\n**Mitigation:** Correct the logic of parsing GET parameters and their subsequent implementation into the generated page.\n**Researcher:** Dmitry Prokhorov (Positive Technologies)\n\n## Research \nDuring the analysis of the nuxt-og-image package, which is shipped with the nuxt-seo package, a zero‑day vulnerability was discovered.\nThis research revealed that the image‑generation component by the URI: `/_og/d/` (and, in older versions, `/og-image/`) contains a vulnerability that allows injection of arbitrary attributes into the HTML page body. The vulnerability was reproduced using the standard configuration and the default templates.\n\n\n_Listing 1. The content of the configuration file `nuxt.config.ts`_ \n```\nexport default defineNuxtConfig({\n modules: ['nuxt-og-image'],\n devServer: {\n host: 'web-test.local',\n port: 3000\n },\n site: {\n url: 'http://web-test.local:3000',\n },\n ogImage: {\n fonts: [\n 'Inter:400', \n 'Inter:700'\n ],\n }\n})\n```\n\n## Vulnerability reproduction\nTo demonstrate the proof‑of‑concept, follow the URI: `/_og/d/og.html?width=1000&height=1000&onmouseover=alert(document.cookie)&autofocus`\nThe injected parameters `onmouseover=alert(document.cookie)` and `autofocus` are treated as attributes and are inserted directly into the generated HTML page.\n\n\n_Listing 2. HTTP-request example_\n```\nGET /_og/d/og.html?width=1000&height=1000&onmouseover=alert(document.cookie) HTTP/1.1\nHost: web-test.local:3000\n```\n\n_Figure 1.
