CVE-2026-27977

Summary

In next dev, cross-site protection for internal websocket endpoints could treat Origin: null as a bypass case even if allowedDevOrigins is configured, allowing privacy-sensitive/opaque contexts (for example sandboxed documents) to connect unexpectedly.

Impact

If a dev server is reachable from attacker-controlled content, an attacker may be able to connect to the HMR websocket channel and interact with dev websocket traffic. This affects development mode only.
Apps without a configured allowedDevOrigins still allow connections from any origin.

Patches

Fixed by validating Origin: null through the same cross-site origin-allowance checks used for other origins.

Workarounds

If upgrade is not immediately possible:

• Do not expose next dev to untrusted networks.
• Block websocket upgrades to /_next/webpack-hmr when Origin is null at your proxy.

CVE-2026-27978

Summary

origin: null was treated as a "missing" origin during Server Action CSRF validation. As a result, requests from opaque contexts (such as sandboxed iframes) could bypass origin verification instead of being validated as cross-origin requests.

Impact

An attacker could induce a victim browser to submit Server Actions from a sandboxed context, potentially executing state-changing actions with victim credentials (CSRF).

Patches

Fixed by treating 'null' as an explicit origin value and enforcing host/origin checks unless 'null' is explicitly allowlisted in experimental.serverActions.allowedOrigins.

Workarounds

If upgrade is not immediately possible:

• Add CSRF tokens for sensitive Server Actions.
• Prefer SameSite=Strict on sensitive auth cookies.
• Do not allow 'null' in serverActions.allowedOrigins unless intentionally required and additionally protected.

CVE-2026-27979

Summary

A request containing the next-resume: 1 header (corresponding with a PPR resume request) would buffer request bodies without consistently enforcing maxPostponedStateSize in certain setups. The previous mitigation protected minimal-mode deployments, but equivalent non-minimal deployments remained vulnerable to the same unbounded postponed resume-body buffering behavior.

Impact

In applications using the App Router with Partial Prerendering capability enabled (via experimental.ppr or cacheComponents), an attacker could send oversized next-resume POST payloads that were buffered without consistent size enforcement in non-minimal deployments, causing excessive memory usage and potential denial of service.

Patches

Fixed by enforcing size limits across all postponed-body buffering paths and erroring when limits are exceeded.

Workarounds

If upgrade is not immediately possible:

• Block requests containing the next-resume header, as this is never valid to be sent from an untrusted client.

CVE-2026-29057

Summary

When Next.js rewrites proxy traffic to an external backend, a crafted DELETE/OPTIONS request using Transfer-Encoding: chunked could trigger request boundary disagreement between the proxy and backend. This could allow request smuggling through rewritten routes.

Impact

An attacker could smuggle a second request to unintended backend routes (for example, internal/admin endpoints), bypassing assumptions that only the configured rewrite destination/path is reachable. This does not impact applications hosted on providers that handle rewrites at the CDN level, such as Vercel.

Patches

The vulnerability originated in an upstream library vendored by Next.js. It is fixed by updating that dependency’s behavior so content-length: 0 is added only when both content-length and transfer-encoding are absent, and transfer-encoding is no longer removed in that code path.

Workarounds

If upgrade is not immediately possible:

• Block chunked DELETE/OPTIONS requests on rewritten routes at your edge/proxy.
• Enforce authentication/authorization on backend routes per our security guidance.
