CVE-2026-106104: Quasar Framework ReDoS in SSR User-Agent parsing

CVE-2026-106104 · Severity: high · CVSS 4 · Published 2026-10-06

Quasar Framework is a Vue.js UI framework that powers modern web applications. In server-side rendering (SSR) mode, a crafted HTTP request with a specially malformed User-Agent header can cause the framework to hang and block the Node.js server, making it unresponsive to legitimate requests and causing denial of service.

Technologies: quasar (npm). Vendors: npm.

Am I affected by CVE-2026-106104?
Check whether you run quasar (npm) or Quasar Framework Quasar at an affected version. Junglewise does that check for you around the clock: connect your code, cloud and domains, and it matches new vulnerabilities like this one against what you actually run and tells you when one reaches you.

How to fix

  • quasar (npm): upgrade to 2.23.3 or later
    npm install quasar@2.23.3

Disable SSR mode or restrict access to SSR endpoints until upgrading, as SPA, PWA, Electron, Cordova, Capacitor, browser-extension, and static-site-generation targets are not affected by this vulnerability.

Technical details

The vulnerability is a Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) in the Platform.parseSSR() function, which processes the User-Agent header through browser-detection regex expressions containing greedy captures and unbounded scans. An attacker sends an unauthenticated request with repeated version tokens without termination, triggering super-linear backtracking that blocks the event loop. The fix introduces a 512-byte length limit on User-Agent parsing and removes greedy quantifiers from browser-detection patterns.
