Prior to 1.1.18, 2.1.4, 3.0.6, and 5.0.9, expand() does not apply maxLength while constructing comma-alternative intermediate arrays or padded sequences, allowing attacker-controlled input to exhaust memory or block the event loop. The fix for CVE-2026-14257 is bypassed by the vulnerability. This issue is fixed in versions 1.1.18, 2.1.4, 3.0.6, and 5.0.9.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-08-03T16:33:36.324+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-08-03T20:12:20.435+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"brace-expansion","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"juliangruber\",\n                    \"product\": \"brace-expansion\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"< 1.1.18\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \">= 2.0.0, < 2.1.4\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \">= 3.0.0, < 3.0.6\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \">= 4.0.0, < 5.0.9\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":7.5,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/juliangruber/brace-expansion/security/advisories/GHSA-rgw5-rvv9-x895","https://github.com/juliangruber/brace-expansion/commit/139d015104e71433ad52a41d19467c48ecbb2c7d","https://github.com/juliangruber/brace-expansion/commit/1e30c930238d7162802d88a94189182def178dac","https://github.com/juliangruber/brace-expansion/commit/688a99eeaab02627c2b89ba8ba4821fecfa659cf","https://github.com/juliangruber/brace-expansion/commit/cb4b9e47cc2ec777c14b2b4492fb431a56f6a031"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-69152","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-69152","identifiers":["CVE-2026-69152"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
