CVE-2026-50134: Gohugo Hugo

Medium severity, CVSS 5.8. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Hugo is a static site generator. From 0.91.0 until 0.162.0, resources.GetRemote enforces security.http.urls on the URL it is called with, but it did not re-validate intermediate URLs on HTTP 3xx redirects. An allowed server (or an attacker controlling its DNS or response) could therefore redirect the request to a host that the policy was meant to forbid and Hugo would fetch from the redirected target. The same bypass also lifted any host-shape restriction the operator had put in place. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.162.0.

Affected products

• Gohugo Hugo: from 0.91.0, before 0.162.0 (fixed in 0.162.0)
