{"cve":"CVE-2024-29042","nvd":{"published":"2024-03-22T17:15:07.990","modified":"2026-06-17T07:22:18.630","status":"Analyzed","description":"Translate is a package that allows users to convert text to different languages on Node.js and the browser. Prior to version 3.0.0, an attacker controlling the second variable of the `translate` function is able to perform a cache poisoning attack. They can change the outcome of translation requests made by subsequent users. The `opt.id` parameter allows the overwriting of the cache key. If an attacker sets the `id` variable to the cache key that would be generated by another user, they can choose the response that user gets served. Version 3.0.0 fixes this issue.","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:L/A:N","score":5.3},"cwes":["CWE-20"],"references":["https://github.com/franciscop/translate/commit/7a2bf8b9f05f7c45c09683973ef4d8e995804aa4","https://github.com/franciscop/translate/commit/cc1ba03078102f83e0503a96f1a081489bb865d3","https://github.com/franciscop/translate/security/advisories/GHSA-882j-4vj5-7vmj","https://github.com/franciscop/translate/commit/7a2bf8b9f05f7c45c09683973ef4d8e995804aa4","https://github.com/franciscop/translate/commit/cc1ba03078102f83e0503a96f1a081489bb865d3"],"products":["francisco:translate"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:47:51.568503435+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2024-29042","score":0.0065,"percentile":0.51143,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-882j-4vj5-7vmj","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-882j-4vj5-7vmj","summary":"Cache Poisoning Vulnerability","modified":"2026-09-10T03:50:00.241167508Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"translate","purl":"pkg:npm/translate","ranges":["<3.0.0"],"fixed":["3.0.0"]}]}],"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).
