Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in turbo (CVE-2026-45773)
Summary
Vulnerability in turbo (CVE-2026-45773). Data can be tampered with by attackers. Exploitable via turbo. Mitigation: upgrade to 2.9.14 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Impact
Turborepo's self-hosted login and SSO browser flows did not validate a CSRF state value on the localhost callback. While the CLI was waiting for authentication, a malicious web page could send a request to the local callback server with an attacker-controlled token. If accepted before the legitimate callback, the CLI could complete login with the wrong credentials.
This affects users authenticating the turbo CLI against self-hosted remote cache/auth endpoints. Vercel-hosted login flows using device authorization are not affected.
Fix
The login and SSO redirect flows now generate a random state value, include it in the browser authentication URL, and require the same value on the localhost callback before accepting a token. Callbacks with a missing or mismatched state are rejected.
Workarounds
If you cannot upgrade immediately, avoid browser-based self-hosted turbo login or SSO flows on machines that may load untrusted web content during authentication. Use a pre-provisioned token or environment-based authentication instead.
