What is CVE-2025-66202?

The Astro web framework versions 5.15.7 and earlier are susceptible to a double URL encoding bypass that enables unauthenticated attackers to circumvent path-based authentication measures in middleware. This vulnerability permits unauthorized access to restricted routes. Although a fix was applied in version 5.15.8 to address a similar issue identified in CVE-2025-64765, it inadequately resolves the problem as it only processes the URL encoding once. Attackers can exploit this weakness by utilizing double-encoded URLs, successfully gaining entry to any middleware-protected routes.
