- CVSS_V3
- CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
Description
### Impact Morgan writes attacker-controlled request data to the access log. Its escaping (added in 1.11.0 and 1.12.0) neutralizes control characters, the Unicode line separators, and backslash, but not the double quote (`0x22`), which is the field delimiter of the Apache combined log format morgan emits. An attacker who controls a quoted field (`:user-agent`, `:referrer`, the request URL, or the Basic auth `:remote-user`) can inject a double quote to close the field early and forge additional fields in the log record. The `combined`, `common`, and `default` formats, and any custom format that quotes a token, are affected. This is an incomplete fix of CVE-2026-5078 and CVE-2026-15603. ### Patches Users should upgrade to version 1.12.1. ### Workarounds Update to version 1.12.1.
