Next.js: Response Body Cache Confusion for Requests Containing Bodies

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

Next.js is a React framework for building full-stack web applications. In versions 12.0.0 through 15.5.20 and 16.0.0 through 16.2.10, a server-side fetch with a request body may return a cached response body from a different request to the same URL but different body. Confidential data in the POST's response body would then leak to unauthorized requests. Though the request itself will not be deduped. This only applies to fetch calls with a request that has a different init than the one passed to fetch. A safe request would be: fetch(new Request(init), init). An unsafe request would be: fetch(new Request(init), aDifferentInit). This issue has been fixed in versions 15.5.21 and 16.2.11.

## Impact A server-side `fetch` with a request body may return a cached **response** body from a different request to the same URL but different body. Confidential data in the `POST`'s **response** body would then leak to unauthorized requests. Though the request itself will not be deduped. This only applies to `fetch` calls with a request that has a different init than the one passed to `fetch`. Safe: `fetch(new Request(init), init)` Unsafe: `fetch(new Request(init), aDifferentInit)` ## Workarounds No workaround exists besides upgrading. Applications using Pages Router are not vulnerable.
