node-re2: node-re2 provides RE2 regular expression bindings for Node.js
CVE-2026-71430 is fixed in node-re2 on 1 platform by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-71430 (version 1.26.1+~cs1.7.0-1), released August 15, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
node-re2 provides RE2 regular expression bindings for Node.js. Prior to version 1.25.1, the WrappedRE2::Replace function built its replacement result and passed it to V8 using ToLocalChecked without checking for the empty MaybeLocal that V8 returns when the resulting string or buffer exceeds V8's maximum string length. When a global replace uses an output amplifying replacement template, the result can grow quadratically with the input size, and once the result exceeds V8's maximum string length, the unchecked ToLocalChecked call causes a fatal, uncatchable process abort instead of a catchable exception. This issue is fixed in version 1.25.1.
