CVE-2026-44492 Details
Description
Axios is a promise based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js. Prior to 0.32.0 and 1.16.0, Axios does not normalise IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses. When NO_PROXY lists an IPv4 address such as 127.0.0.1 or 169.254.169.254, a request URL using the IPv4-mapped IPv6 form (::ffff:7f00:1, ::ffff:a9fe:a9fe) still routes through the configured proxy. Node.js resolves these addresses to the underlying IPv4 host, so the request reaches the internal service via the proxy rather than being blocked. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.32.0 and 1.16.0.
A proxy bypass vulnerability has been identified in Axios versions 1.0.0 prior to 1.15.0 and 0.32.0 prior to 0.32.0. The issue arises because Axios does not properly normalize IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses. When NO_PROXY is set to an IPv4 address like 127.0.0.1 or 169.254.169.254, requests using the IPv4-mapped IPv6 format can still be routed through the configured proxy. This behavior allows requests to reach internal services via the proxy, instead of being blocked as intended. The vulnerability is particularly concerning in cloud environments, where it could be exploited to access sensitive metadata services.
Users can upgrade to Axios versions 1.16.0 or 0.32.0 to address this vulnerability.
