Overview

CVE-2026-54298 is a medium-severity vulnerability. It was published on June 22, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.2 (MEDIUM).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.2, rated MEDIUM. It can be exploited remotely over the network. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical description

Astro is a web framework. Prior to 6.4.6, the spreadAttributes function in Astro's server-side rendering pipeline iterates over object keys and passes them directly to addAttribute, which interpolates the key into the HTML output without escaping. When a developer uses the spread syntax {...props} on an HTML element and the object keys come from an untrusted source (API, CMS, URL parameters), an attacker can inject arbitrary HTML attributes including event handlers like onmousemove, onclick, or break out of the attribute context entirely to inject new elements. This vulnerability is fixed in 6.4.6.
