fast-uri is a dependency-free RFC 3986 URI parser for Node.js, used by Fastify and ajv, that added a mailto scheme parser in version 4.1.3. In versions 4.1.3 and 4.1.4, the mailto parser compares each query field name to the reserved names to, subject, and body while the name is still percent-encoded, and decodes it only when storing it as a generic header, so a percent-encoded spelling of a reserved field name is not recognized as that field at parse time but is re-emitted as the literal field name when the parsed URI is serialized. An application that validates, logs, or displays the recipient list from the first parse and then serializes the URI and sends it can silently gain an attacker-chosen recipient, and the subject and body fields can be smuggled across the same roundtrip. The issue is fixed in fast-uri 4.1.5, and users should upgrade to 4.1.5 or later. As a workaround, do not act on a mailto URI that fast-uri has re-serialized without first decoding and re-validating its recipient, subject, and body fields.

GHSA-jvvf-x445-j334 — fast-uri vulnerable to mailto header injection via percent-encoded field-name desynchronization

2026-10-06T17:57:24.200616+00:00

Affected: npm: fast-uri

### Impact

`fast-uri`'s `mailto` scheme parser compares each query field name to the reserved names (`to`, `subject`, `body`) while the name is still percent-encoded, and only percent-decodes it when storing it as a generic header. On serialize, the decoded name is re-emitted, so a field name such as `%74o` (percent-encoded `to`) is not recognized as a recipient at parse time (`parse().to` shows only the legitimate recipient) but materializes as a literal `to=` field after `serialize()`, and reparsing then treats it as a recipient. The same technique smuggles `subject` and `body` through `%73ubject` and `%62ody`.

An application that parses an untrusted mailto URI, makes a display, allowlist, or logging decision on `parse().to`, then re-serializes the result and passes the serialized string to a mail client or an outbound send path can gain an attacker-chosen recipient, subject, or body that was not visible when the recipient list was checked. A scanner inspecting the raw input for an extra `to=` sees nothing, because the injected field appears only after `fast-uri` serializes.

### Patches

Upgrade to `fast-uri` 4.1.5.

### Workarounds

Percent-decode and compare mailto field names case-insensitively before trusting `parse().to`, or re-check the recipient list on the serialized output rather than only on the initial parse, until upgrading.
