Summary
The @hono/node-server package, which runs Hono applications on Node.js, misreads the origin of certain WebSocket upgrade requests, so origin checks can pass for requests from other sites. An attacker can remotely, without logging in, get a victim to visit a malicious page that opens a WebSocket connection with the victim's cookies, then read and send messages.
Written by anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5 from the sources below. Verify against them.
Read the original description
@hono/node-server allows running the Hono application on Node.js. From 2.0.0 until 2.1.6, the WebSocket upgrade path resolves a raw request-target beginning with // against a base URL built from the Host header, causing the WHATWG URL parser to treat the request-target as a network-path reference and replace the host in c.req.url. Routing still uses the local WebSocket path, so an application that compares the Origin header with the origin of c.req.url, including checks implemented with csrf(), compares an attacker's origin with itself and accepts the connection. A page on another site can consequently open a WebSocket with the victim's cookies and read and send messages when the application uses upgradeWebSocket and trusts the host in c.req.url. Ordinary HTTP requests are not affected. This issue is fixed in version 2.1.6.

What to do
Upgrade to a fixed version: 2.1.6.
Check your systems with an agent
Paste this into a coding or ops agent. It checks your systems read-only and reports a table per asset.
Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-126344 (@hono/node-server: WebSocket upgrade request-target starting with `//` replaces the host in `c.req.url`, bypassing `Origin` checks), using the cve.now data below.
Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.
What cve.now has for CVE-2026-126344 (entry last updated 2026-11-13):
Affected:
- honojs node-server: from 2.0.0, fixed in 2.1.6
Fixed versions: 2.1.6.
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-126344 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-126344 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.
How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.
Verify against the linked advisories before concluding, and cite the date you read each one:
- https://github.com/honojs/node-server/security/advisories/GHSA-7v5p-43qr-wch5
- https://github.com/honojs/node-server/commit/cfaa79f76dbb0fe9f539438c0c585d94ed7cd01f
- https://github.com/honojs/node-server/releases/tag/v2.1.6
Do not conclude an asset is unaffected unless you checked it and the evidence covers both its version and the conditions above. If you could not check something, mark it unknown and say what is missing.
Report a table with one row per asset and these columns: Asset | Version or build | Status (affected, fixed, not applicable, unknown) | Compensating controls | Exposure (internet-facing, internal, none) | Evidence | Next action.
