CVE-2026-44217
Prior to 4.0.1, implementations that allow user-provided values to be passed to event, retry or id fields are susceptible to event spoofing, where an attacker could inject arbitrary messages into the stream.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.48%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
sse-channel is an SSE-implementation which can be used to any node.js http request/response stream. Prior to 4.0.1, implementations that allow user-provided values to be passed to event, retry or id fields are susceptible to event spoofing, where an attacker could inject arbitrary messages into the stream. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.0.1.
