fast-uri is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
84
High Risk
This Affects:
fast-uriTL;DR
URI authority parsing does not treat a literal backslash as a delimiter, while Node's WHATWG URL normalizes \ to / for special schemes. The same input can therefore yield different hosts in fast-uri versus fetch()/undici, so host allowlists, SSRF filters, or redirect checks based on fast-uri can be bypassed. The fix rejects URIs whose authority contains a literal backslash.
Who does this affect?
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and you use fast-uri for host-based policy checks before passing the same URL to Node's URL or fetch() consumers.
Background info
fast-uri is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in versions 2.3.1 - 2.4.2, 3.0.0 - 3.1.3 and 4.0.0 - 4.1.0.
How to fix this
Upgrade the fast-uri library to the patch version.
