What is CVE-2026-44495?

Axios, a popular promise-based HTTP client, has been identified with a vulnerability that allows prototype pollution via request configuration processing. Affected versions, ranging from 0.19.0 to just before 0.31.1 and 1.15.2, may be susceptible to inherited properties being treated as request options if an external prototype pollution vulnerability already targets the Object.prototype. This could potentially lead to unexpected behavior or security issues in applications relying on Axios for HTTP requests. To mitigate this vulnerability, users should update to Axios versions 0.31.1 or 1.15.2, where this issue has been resolved.

Affected Version(s)

axios >= 1.0.0, < 1.15.2 < 1.0.0, 1.15.2

axios >= 0.19.0, < 0.31.1 < 0.19.0, 0.31.1
