GitHub Vulnerability Alerts

CVE-2026-27977

Summary

In next dev, cross-site protection for internal websocket endpoints could treat Origin: null as a bypass case even if allowedDevOrigins is configured, allowing privacy-sensitive/opaque contexts (for example sandboxed documents) to connect unexpectedly.

Impact

If a dev server is reachable from attacker-controlled content, an attacker may be able to connect to the HMR websocket channel and interact with dev websocket traffic. This affects development mode only.
Apps without a configured allowedDevOrigins still allow connections from any origin.

Patches

Fixed by validating Origin: null through the same cross-site origin-allowance checks used for other origins.

Workarounds

If upgrade is not immediately possible:

• Do not expose next dev to untrusted networks.
• Block websocket upgrades to /_next/webpack-hmr when Origin is null at your proxy.

CVE-2026-27978

Summary

origin: null was treated as a "missing" origin during Server Action CSRF validation. As a result, requests from opaque contexts (such as sandboxed iframes) could bypass origin verification instead of being validated as cross-origin requests.

Impact

An attacker could induce a victim browser to submit Server Actions from a sandboxed context, potentially executing state-changing actions with victim credentials (CSRF).

Patches

Fixed by treating 'null' as an explicit origin value and enforcing host/origin checks unless 'null' is explicitly allowlisted in experimental.serverActions.allowedOrigins.

Workarounds

If upgrade is not immediately possible:

• Add CSRF tokens for sensitive Server Actions.
• Prefer SameSite=Strict on sensitive auth cookies.
• Do not allow 'null' in serverActions.allowedOrigins unless intentionally required and additionally protected.
