As of 5 Nov 2026, the latest release of axios on npm is 1.21.0. No published advisory (OSV) matches 1.21.0; 56 more affect older versions only. No field reports on 1.21.0 yet. Security status: clear. npm:axios **1.21.0**latest on npm **0**advisories matching 1.21.0 **56**advisories on older versions only **0**field reports on 1.21.0 ## What the status means Security status: **clear** · Forge verdict: not enough reports yet Clear: no published advisory (OSV) matched 1.21.0 and no field report flagged it, as of 5 Nov 2026. Clear means no known pattern or advisory matched, not that a tool is safe. Advisories are matched to one exact version. An advisory can only be matched once it is published, and field reports need 5 people, at least 2 verified, before a version gets a Forge Score ([methodology](https://theagentforge.io/methodology)). ## Published advisories (OSV) | Advisory | Kind | Matches 1.21.0 | Fixed in | Published | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [MAL-2026-2307](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/MAL-2026-2307) GHSA-fw8c-xr5c-95f9 | malicious-package record | no | — | 2026-03-31 | | [GHSA-m8m8-qj5v-23w3](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-m8m8-qj5v-23w3) CVE-2026-101905 | vulnerability | no | 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-j8rh-479h-cp32](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-j8rh-479h-cp32) CVE-2026-101904 | vulnerability | no | 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-4hqw-qxg8-jxx2](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-4hqw-qxg8-jxx2) CVE-2026-101900 | vulnerability | no | 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-r4gj-5m52-g5wh](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-r4gj-5m52-g5wh) CVE-2026-101907 | vulnerability | no | 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-44g4-m2mj-wpvx](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-44g4-m2mj-wpvx) CVE-2026-101899 | vulnerability | no | 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-vh66-26gq-q6x8](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-vh66-26gq-q6x8) CVE-2026-101908 | vulnerability | no | 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-9fr6-4gfg-395g](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-9fr6-4gfg-395g) CVE-2026-101902 | vulnerability | no | 0.34.0, 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-3pq3-5fj3-cg6v](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-3pq3-5fj3-cg6v) CVE-2026-101898 | vulnerability | no | 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-c29m-xwm3-cm6r](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-c29m-xwm3-cm6r) CVE-2026-101903 | vulnerability | no | 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-542g-h47m-68v8](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-542g-h47m-68v8) CVE-2026-101901 | vulnerability | no | 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-x97p-jq2g-jp4f](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-x97p-jq2g-jp4f) CVE-2026-101909 | vulnerability | no | 0.34.0, 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-mghh-pgcx-3jjj](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-mghh-pgcx-3jjj) CVE-2026-101906 | vulnerability | no | 1.20.0 | 2026-09-30 | | [GHSA-xj6q-8x83-jv6g](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-xj6q-8x83-jv6g) CVE-2026-67314 | vulnerability | no | 1.18.0 | 2026-07-20 | | [GHSA-pmv8-rq9r-6j72](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-pmv8-rq9r-6j72) CVE-2026-67312 | vulnerability | no | 0.33.0, 1.18.0 | 2026-07-20 | | [GHSA-7q8q-rj6j-mhjq](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-7q8q-rj6j-mhjq) CVE-2026-67319 | vulnerability | no | 0.33.0, 1.18.0 | 2026-07-20 | | [GHSA-42h9-826w-cgv3](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-42h9-826w-cgv3) CVE-2026-67313 | vulnerability | no | 0.33.0, 1.18.0 | 2026-07-20 | | [GHSA-p92q-9vqr-4j8v](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-p92q-9vqr-4j8v) CVE-2026-44487 | vulnerability | no | 1.16.0, 0.32.0 | 2026-06-04 | | [GHSA-xx6v-rp6x-q39c](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-xx6v-rp6x-q39c) CVE-2026-42042 | vulnerability | no | 1.15.1, 0.31.1 | 2026-05-05 | | [GHSA-pjwm-pj3p-43mv](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-pjwm-pj3p-43mv) CVE-2026-44492 | vulnerability | no | 1.16.0, 0.32.0 | 2026-05-29 | | [GHSA-pmwg-cvhr-8vh7](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-pmwg-cvhr-8vh7) CVE-2026-42043 | vulnerability | no | 1.15.1, 0.31.1 | 2026-05-05 | | [GHSA-pf86-5x62-jrwf](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-pf86-5x62-jrwf) CVE-2026-42033 | vulnerability | no | 1.15.1, 0.31.1 | 2026-05-05 | | [GHSA-m7pr-hjqh-92cm](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-m7pr-hjqh-92cm) CVE-2026-42038 | vulnerability | no | 1.15.1, 0.31.1 | 2026-05-05 | | [GHSA-898c-q2cr-xwhg](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-898c-q2cr-xwhg) CVE-2026-44490 | vulnerability | no | 1.16.0, 0.32.0 | 2026-05-29 | | [GHSA-6chq-wfr3-2hj9](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-6chq-wfr3-2hj9) CVE-2026-42035 | vulnerability | no | 1.15.1, 0.31.1 | 2026-05-05 | 31 more on [OSV](https://osv.dev/list?ecosystem=npm&q=axios).
