The package muhammara before 2.6.2 and from 3.0.0 and before 3.3.0, as well as all versions of muhammara's predecessor package hummus, are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) when supplied with a maliciously crafted PDF file to be parsed. The issue has been patched in muhammara version 3.4.0 and the fix has been backported to version 2.6.2. As a workaround, do not process files from untrusted sources. If using hummus, replace the package with muhammara.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":7.5},"cwes":["CWE-690"],"references":["https://github.com/julianhille/MuhammaraJS/pull/235","https://github.com/julianhille/MuhammaraJS/pull/238","https://github.com/julianhille/MuhammaraJS/security/advisories/GHSA-2r7v-cmch-5x26","https://github.com/julianhille/MuhammaraJS/pull/235","https://github.com/julianhille/MuhammaraJS/pull/238"],"products":["hummus_project:hummus","muhammara_project:muhammara"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:37:28.463369388+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2022-41957","score":0.01128,"percentile":0.66356,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-2r7v-cmch-5x26","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-2r7v-cmch-5x26","summary":"muhammara and hummus vulnerable to Unchecked Return Value to NULL Pointer Dereference","modified":"2023-11-08T04:10:36.975874Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"hummus","purl":"pkg:npm/hummus","ranges":["all versions"],"fixed":[]},{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"muhammara","purl":"pkg:npm/muhammara","ranges":[">=3.0.0 <3.4.0"],"fixed":["3.4.0"]},{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"muhammara","purl":"pkg:npm/muhammara","ranges":["<2.6.2"],"fixed":["2.6.2"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
