Summary

uri-js through 4.4.1 contains an improper UTF-8 decoding vulnerability in pctDecChars() that decodes invalid and overlong percent-encoded sequences into ASCII metacharacters. Attackers can craft percent-encoded payloads to bypass platform decoder validation and inject path traversal or CRLF sequences that downstream consumers process without filtering.

Inferred packages

No advisory lists a package for this vulnerability yet. The CVE names these as products and links their GitHub repository, and the package registry names the same repository, so they are probably the affected packages. Low confidence: the versions are the CVE’s own for the product, and a stack check reports the package as unchecked when there are none.
