Imperva Proves Node2Shell RCE on Official Node.js 24 via Crafted Brotli Data

Security researchers at Imperva have demonstrated a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability, dubbed 'Node2Shell', in the official Node.js 24.22.0 Linux arm64 build. The exploit leverages a flaw in the bundled Brotli decoder (CVE-2026-111497), allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending crafted compressed data. Node.js released a fix on October 21, 2026, and no active exploitation has been reported in the wild as of October 22.

Node.js Patches Critical Brotli Decoder Flaw and Nine Other Vulnerabilities

Node.js released security updates on October 21 for versions 22.x, 24.x, and 26.x, addressing ten vulnerabilities. The most severe is an out-of-bounds write in the bundled Brotli decoder that could allow remote code execution. While a proof-of-concept exploit exists, it has only demonstrated full code execution on weakened test builds, not standard production environments. No active exploitation has been reported in the wild.
