Vulnerability in Let (CVE-2026-66749)
Summary
Vulnerability in Let (CVE-2026-66749). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Exploitable via GET /messages.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Let's Chat 0.4.0 through 0.4.8 contains a null dereference vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers to crash the server by supplying a valid 24-character hex string room parameter that matches no document in the database. Attackers can send a crafted GET /messages request causing an uncaught TypeError in an asynchronous Mongoose callback that terminates the Node.js server process, with the same defect reachable through multiple code paths including the socket.io interface.

Attack vector: remote (network-reachable) / no user interaction
Attack surface: GET /messages
Plan: 1) Audit SBOM/dependencies, 2) Stage→prod upgrade, 3) Add WAF/proxy monitoring on affected endpoints, 4) Hunt IOCs in logs.
Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.
A vulnerability (CWE-476) exists in Let. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via GET /messages.
Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Let. Attack surface: GET /messages.

Update to the patched release per vendor advisory.
Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.
Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual GET /messages requests with malformed payloads or SQL meta-characters. Run grep -r 'Let' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.
Response actions
Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order
-
1Identify exposure identify
grep -r 'Let' . | grep -v node_modulesリポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で
Letを grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。 -
2Hunt for indicators of compromise detect
grep 'GET /messages' /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep -E '(unusual_payload|sqli_pattern)'アクセスログで
GET /messagesへの異常なリクエスト (不正な認証ヘッダ・SQLメタ文字)を過去 30〜90日分捜索。WAF/SIEM があれば該当パスのアラート発火履歴を確認。 -
3Post-deployment verification verify
Replay attack against GET /messages on staging to confirm patch closes the vectorパッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番では Step 2 と同じログクエリでアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
