quasar: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation
CVE-2026-106107 is a high-severity improper neutralization of input during web page generation vulnerability in quasar from Quasarframework, with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.3 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected quasar versions: < 2.23.4. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.27% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Check which version of quasar you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Read the advisory on github.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
Quasar Framework is a framework for building high-performance Vue.js user interfaces. Prior to 3.3.0, several @quasar/app-vite SSR and SSG rendering paths interpolated ssrContext.nonce directly into quoted HTML attributes. An application that derives or overrides this value with attacker-controlled data can allow a quote to terminate the nonce attribute and inject additional attributes or markup into generated HTML across development and production SSR or SSG output. Cryptographically generated base64 or base64url nonces are not affected because they lack HTML attribute delimiters. This issue is fixed in version 3.3.0.

The underlying weakness: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation
The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid. Examples of libraries and frameworks that make it easier to generate properly encoded output include Microsoft's Anti-XSS library, the OWASP ESAPI Encoding module, and Apache Wicket.
- Understand all the potential areas where untrusted inputs can enter your software: parameters or arguments, cookies, anything read from the network, environment variables, reverse DNS lookups, query results, request headers, URL components, e-mail, files, filenames, databases, and any external systems that provide data to the application. Remember that such inputs may be obtained indirectly through API calls.
- For any security checks that are performed on the client side, ensure that these checks are duplicated on the server side, in order to avoid CWE-602. Attackers can bypass the client-side checks by modifying values after the checks have been performed, or by changing the client to remove the client-side checks entirely. Then, these modified values would be submitted to the server.
