Answer in brief
CVE-2026-44974 records a High severity (CVSS 7.7) vulnerability in Parameter smuggling in @hapi/content header parser allows upload-filter bypass via duplicate parameters. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps hapijs/content (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.

HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
CVSS is 7.7. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

@hapi/content provided HTTP Content-* headers parsing. Prior to 6.0.2, Content.disposition() retained the last occurrence of each duplicate parameter while Content.type() retained the first occurrence of duplicate charset and boundary parameters, creating a parameter-smuggling primitive when another component in the request-processing chain resolves duplicates the opposite way. This can allow an upload filename allowlist bypass in headers such as Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="safe.txt"; filename="shell.php". This issue is fixed in version 6.0.2.
