CVE-2026-71320 is a server-side code execution vulnerability in Nuxt affecting versions 3.4.0 through before 3.21.10 and 4.0.0 through before 4.5.1. When vue.runtimeCompiler: true is enabled, an attacker can inject a template key through props supplied to the __nuxt_island endpoint and have that data reach a dynamic component. This can cause attacker-controlled template compilation and execution inside the Nitro process. The flaw arises from unsafe handling of attacker-influenced component props in conjunction with Vue runtime template compilation and dynamic component resolution. The issue is associated with improper neutralization of special elements in input used by a downstream component and code generation from externally controlled input.

vue.runtimeCompiler by setting it to false, which is the default. Avoid passing untrusted island props into dynamic component resolution paths such as <component :is>, resolveDynamicComponent, or h() without strict sanitization and validation. As a compensating control, deploy filtering on requests targeting the Nuxt island rendering path that decodes and parses submitted props and blocks objects containing dangerous keys such as template or render. This should be treated only as a temporary mitigation because edge filtering may not cover all internal SSR island render paths.Patch, then assume compromise.
template key at any depth when vue.runtimeCompiler is enabled. Ensure all affected deployments are updated to a patched release in the applicable major version line.No public exploits tracked yet. Mallory keeps watching.
