The advisory
@hapi/content from 6.0.1 before 6.0.3 contains a regular expression denial of service vulnerability in Content.disposition() caused by an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-35213. Unauthenticated remote attackers can send multipart uploads with a long Content-Disposition parameter lacking an equals sign, triggering quadratic backtracking that blocks the event loop.
Check your whole app
Dependencies are only half of it. Free and read-only: before you push, run npx shippable-dev scan localhost:3000 in your project folder, no account needed. For your live app, you prove it's yours with a one-line tag first.
