Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Nuxt is an open-source web development framework for Vue.js. In @nuxt/rspack-builder and @nuxt/webpack-builder from versions 3.15.4 to before 3.21.7 and 4.0.0 to before 4.4.7, there is an incomplete fix for GHSA-6m52-m754-pw2g. Source code may still be stolen during dev when using the webpack / rspack builder if the dev server is bound to a non-loopback address (e.g. nuxt dev --host) and the developer opens a malicious site on the same network. This issue has been patched in versions 3.21.7 and 4.4.7.

Recommended fix High confidence

Nuxt 3.x: upgrade to 3.21.7 or later; Nuxt 4.x: upgrade to 4.4.7 or later

  1. Check current Nuxt version by examining package.json or running npm list nuxt
  2. For Nuxt 3.x users: upgrade to version 3.21.7 or later by running: npm install nuxt@^3.21.7 or yarn add nuxt@^3.21.7
  3. For Nuxt 4.x users: upgrade to version 4.4.7 or later by running: npm install nuxt@^4.4.7 or yarn add nuxt@^4.4.7
  4. After upgrade, verify the fix by reviewing the commit at https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt/commit/77187ee4015e9267fb464951542a3e09e8b5fa05 to confirm the security patch is applied
  5. Test the dev server behavior when binding to non-loopback addresses to ensure source code is no longer exposed
Caveat Major version upgrades (3.x to 4.x) may introduce breaking changes; review Nuxt 4 migration guide before upgrading across major versions
