CVE-2026-44665 PUBLISHED

fast-xml-builder: Attribute values with unwanted quotes can bypass malicious or unwanted attributes

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 07.05.2026 Published: 13.05.2026 Updated: 13.05.2026

fast-xml-builder builds XML from JSON. Prior to 1.1.7, when an input data has quotes in attribute values but process entities is not enabled, it breaks the attribute value into multiple attributes. This gives the room for an attacker to insert unwanted attributes to the XML/HTML. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.1.7.
