Answer in brief
CVE-2026-66062 records a Medium severity (CVSS 5.3) vulnerability in SvelteKit: ReDoS (O(n^2)) in content negotiation — unauthenticated DoS via the Accept header. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps sveltejs/kit (generic), @sveltejs/kit (npm). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.

HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
CVSS is 5.3. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

SvelteKit is a framework for rapidly developing robust, performant web applications using Svelte. Prior to 2.70.2, the content negotiation header parser used by SvelteKit's request handling (for headers such as Accept) uses a regular expression vulnerable to quadratic backtracking, so a maliciously crafted header value can cause excessive CPU consumption and degrade or deny service. Version 2.70.2 fixes the issue.
