CVE-2026-56847: A flaw in Node.js Permission Model enforcement allows `trace_events.createTracing().enable()` Writes Trace Logs Outside `--allow-fs-write`.
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 24/100)
- Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.15% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: azl3 nodejs 24.17.0-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 24.18.1-1.
- Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 3.3, NVD 6.1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to azl3 nodejs 24.17.0-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 24.18.1-1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
A flaw in Node.js Permission Model enforcement allows `trace_events.createTracing().enable()` Writes Trace Logs Outside `--allow-fs-write`. This can lead to confidentiality impact or bypass of the intended security boundary under affected configurations. This vulnerability affects Node.js **22.x**, **24.x**, and **26.x**.
