Orval: Import-time RCE via header parameter name -> computed-property-key injection in the zod client

Original advisory

cve-program · CVE-2026-71864

Published

Orval generates type-safe JavaScript clients in TypeScript from OpenAPI v3 and Swagger v2 specifications. Prior to 8.21.0, a double quote in a header parameter name is emitted into the generated request-validation zod.object({...}) schema without safe encoding. This permits attacker-controlled JavaScript to be evaluated when the generated zod schema module is imported, resulting in code execution in the developer, CI, test, or application environment. The affected code is packages/zod/src/index.ts and header request-validation generation. This issue is fixed in version 8.21.0.

### Summary orval's zod client emits each header parameter name as a double-quoted key in the generated zod.object({...}) request-validation schema WITHOUT escaping the double quote. A " in the header parameter name closes the key and lands in object-literal context, where an injected computed property key [expr] is evaluated when zod.object({...}) runs -- at MODULE IMPORT (export const OpHeader = zod.object({...}) executes on load) -> import-time RCE. The header parameter name is a pure data field. Verified on orval 8.19.0 / Node. ### Details export const OpHeader = zod.object({ "a":zod.string(),[require("fs").writeFileSync("PWNED","")]:zod.string(),"b": ... }) Also affects the hono client (reuses zod generation). orval escapes values in zod arrays but not keys in zod.object. Sibling fields: schema property name, query parameter name (CVE-96) (separate reports). Distinct from orval's $ref / route-path / server-url / zod-default findings. ### PoC reproduce.sh (+ make_spec.py) attached: a header parameter name that breaks the zod.object key and injects a computed key; evaluating it (= importing the module) writes the marker. Verified on 8.19.0. ### Impact JavaScript / OS command execution at import time for anyone who generates an orval zod client from an attacker-controlled spec and imports it. ### Suggested fix Escape the header parameter name for the JS string key (JSON.stringify) in the zod.object key generation; never interpolate a raw name adjacent to [ ] in object-literal position.

Exploitation and risk

Source status

CISA KEV lists vulnerabilities known to be exploited. FIRST EPSS estimates the likelihood of exploitation in the next 30 days. An unavailable score does not mean zero risk.

Which CVEs have scores here?

This view includes predictions for CVE identifiers explicitly listed in public NuGet advisories. Microsoft release pages have their own prediction coverage. Check source status for the scope and latest checks.

No exploitation or prediction data is available here for these CVEs. This does not mean they are safe or unlikely to be exploited.
