- Page: https://www.vulneraibility.com/cve/CVE-2026-123566
- CVSS: 8.7
- Known exploited: not in CISA KEV as of our last sync
- Weakness: CWE-400
- Published: 2026-11-08

## Affected versions

- sveltejs devalue: affected < 5.9.3; fixed in 5.9.3

A version outside these ranges is not a statement that it is unaffected.

## Impact

Denial of Service: attacker-supplied sparse arrays to uneval cause CPU amplification and block the Node.js event loop, freezing affected apps.

## Action

Patch when possible

## Recommendation

Upgrade devalue to >=5.9.3; avoid uneval on untrusted data.
