How to Fix CVE-2026-44479

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Vercel dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

vercel fixed: 52.0.1 
npm install vercel@52.0.1
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

npm ls vercel

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2026-44479, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls vercel

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Vercel in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 52.0.1), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls vercel 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-532: Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File, where the product writes sensitive information to a log file. In Vercel, 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.

Source Advisory Statement

# Summary When the Vercel CLI runs in non-interactive mode (`--non-interactive` or auto-detected AI agent), commands that cannot complete autonomously emit JSON payloads with suggested follow-up commands. If the user authenticated via `--token` or `-t` on the command line, the token value is included verbatim in those suggestions. # Conditions All three must be true for the token to appear in output: 1. Token passed as a CLI argument (`--token` / `-t`). The `VERCEL_TOKEN` environment variable is **not affected**. 2. Non-interactive mode is active (explicit flag or AI agent auto-detection). 3. The command cannot complete on its own (e.g. missing `--yes`, ambiguous scope, API errors). Successful commands produce no suggestion output. ## Impact The plaintext token may be captured in CI/CD logs, agent transcripts, or other automation output. ## Remediation - Upgrade to the patched version. - If developers have previously used `--token` with `--non-interactive` in their applications, review logs for exposed tokens and rotate them. - Prefer `VERCEL_TOKEN` environment variable for authentication.
