CVE-2026-94448
Public on 2026-10-08
Modified on 2026-10-10
Description
When a JavaScript template literal contains consecutive expressions, the context tracking state was not properly reset upon entering a new expression.
We now ensure that template-literal expression entries correctly reset context variables so all subsequent regular expression literals are accurately recognized and escaped.
