Check whether you run @storybook/core (npm), @storybook/core-server (npm), @storybook/experimental-addon-test (npm) or one of the others listed 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.

Q: Is there a fix for CVE-2026-114125?

Yes. @storybook/core (npm): upgrade to 8.6.19 or later; @storybook/core-server (npm): upgrade to 8.6.19 or later; @storybook/experimental-addon-test (npm): upgrade to 8.6.19 or later; storybook (npm): upgrade to 8.6.19 or later; @Storybook/Addon-Mcp: upgrade to 10.6.2 or later; @Storybook/Addon-Vitest: upgrade to 9.1.21 or later. Until then: Do not run an affected Storybook dev server until you can upgrade. If you must run a dev server temporarily, do not grant browser permission for websites to connect to localhost services, and avoid visiting untrusted websites while the server is running. Alternatively, if you rely on iframe embedding from a separate web app, ensure that app runs on localhost. Junglewise finds every place you run it, drafts the upgrade and applies it once you approve.

CVE-2026-114125 · Severity: critical · CVSS 4 · Published 2026-10-21

Storybook is a development tool for building user interface components. A malicious website can interact with a developer's running Storybook dev server to inject code and modify project files. If those modified files are executed, an attacker could gain the developer's privileges and run arbitrary code on their machine.

Technologies: storybook (npm). Vendors: npm.

Do not run an affected Storybook dev server until you can upgrade. If you must run a dev server temporarily, do not grant browser permission for websites to connect to localhost services, and avoid visiting untrusted websites while the server is running. Alternatively, if you rely on iframe embedding from a separate web app, ensure that app runs on localhost.

Technical details

The vulnerability stems from missing origin validation in Storybook's preview iframe postMessage handlers. An attacker can embed a Storybook dev server preview iframe from a malicious website and send forged messages to modify files on the developer's system. The attack requires user interaction and relies on exploiting a sequence of vulnerabilities; exploitation in the wild has not been observed.

Affected products

Storybook Storybook before 8.6.19, 9.x before 9.1.21, 10.x before 10.6.2, 11.x before 11.0.0-alpha.6
