CVE-2026-45739 | Strawberry GraphQL: Default GraphiQL may expose HTTP headers in URLs

Strawberry GraphQL is a library for creating GraphQL APIs. In versions 0.288.4 through 0.315.3, Strawberry's bundled GraphiQL template wrote values from the GraphiQL headers editor into the browser URL query string. If a user entered a sensitive header, such as `Authorization: Bearer <token>`, the value could become visible in browser history, copied links, and server/proxy/CDN access logs after a page reload or shared request. Version 0.315.4 patches the issue.

3.1 3.1 LOW
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:H)
Even with access, the exploit needs extra luck, timing, or a fussy environment to actually work.
Privileges required (PR:N)
No account or special rights needed—anonymous or random user is enough.
User interaction (UI:R)
A real person has to do something—click, install, enable—otherwise it doesn’t land.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:L)
Some sensitive info could get out, but not a total data dump.
Integrity (I:N)
Data isn’t meaningfully altered or forged.
Availability (A:N)
Service keeps running; no real outage angle.
