CVE-2026-52842

Lightpanda:URL parser misidentifies page origin for URLs containing @ in the path - Same-Origin Policy bypass

Published Jul 15, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 9.3 Critical EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Lightpanda is a headless browser designed for AI and automation. Prior to 0.3.1, Lightpanda searched for @ across the entire URL string instead of only the authority component when computing a page origin, so a URL such as `http://attacker.com/@victim.com/` was fetched from attacker.com but treated as `http://victim.com`, allowing a complete Same-Origin Policy bypass. This issue is fixed in version 0.3.1.
