As of 5 Nov 2026, the latest release of multer on npm is 2.5.0. No published advisory (OSV) matches 2.5.0; 15 more affect older versions only. No field reports on 2.5.0 yet. Security status: clear. npm:multer **2.5.0**latest on npm **0**advisories matching 2.5.0 **15**advisories on older versions only **0**field reports on 2.5.0 ## What the status means Security status: **clear** · Forge verdict: not enough reports yet Clear: no published advisory (OSV) matched 2.5.0 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 2.5.0 | Fixed in | Published | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [GHSA-q7qp-rjg7-q26m](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-q7qp-rjg7-q26m) CVE-2026-113872 | vulnerability | no | 2.5.0 | 2026-10-23 | | [GHSA-3pph-fpjx-jg34](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-3pph-fpjx-jg34) CVE-2026-88932 | vulnerability | no | 2.4.0 | 2026-09-28 | | [GHSA-xf7r-hgr6-v32p](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-xf7r-hgr6-v32p) CVE-2026-3304 | vulnerability | no | 2.1.0 | 2026-03-01 | | [GHSA-5528-5vmv-3xc2](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-5528-5vmv-3xc2) CVE-2026-3520 | vulnerability | no | 2.1.1 | 2026-03-05 | | [GHSA-v52c-386h-88mc](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-v52c-386h-88mc) CVE-2026-2359 | vulnerability | no | 2.1.0 | 2026-03-01 | | [GHSA-g5hg-p3ph-g8qg](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-g5hg-p3ph-g8qg) CVE-2025-48997 | vulnerability | no | 2.0.1 | 2025-06-05 | | [GHSA-4pg4-qvpc-4q3h](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-4pg4-qvpc-4q3h) CVE-2025-47944 | vulnerability | no | 2.0.0 | 2025-05-19 | | [GHSA-44fp-w29j-9vj5](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-44fp-w29j-9vj5) CVE-2025-47935 | vulnerability | no | 2.0.0 | 2025-05-19 | | [GHSA-wc9g-mqfw-jrwm](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-wc9g-mqfw-jrwm) CVE-2026-77078 | vulnerability | no | 2.3.0 | 2026-09-08 | | [GHSA-qvfw-j98x-7q72](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-qvfw-j98x-7q72) CVE-2026-77063 | vulnerability | no | 2.3.0 | 2026-09-08 | | [GHSA-535w-7cp7-47q4](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-535w-7cp7-47q4) CVE-2026-82333 | vulnerability | no | 2.3.0 | 2026-09-08 | | [GHSA-qfvm-cv95-jqjf](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-qfvm-cv95-jqjf) CVE-2026-77037 | vulnerability | no | 2.3.0 | 2026-09-08 | | [GHSA-3p4h-7m6x-2hcm](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-3p4h-7m6x-2hcm) CVE-2026-5038 | vulnerability | no | 2.2.0, 3.0.0-alpha.2 | 2026-06-17 | | [GHSA-72gw-mp4g-v24j](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-72gw-mp4g-v24j) CVE-2026-5079 | vulnerability | no | 2.2.0, 3.0.0-alpha.2 | 2026-06-17 | | [GHSA-fjgf-rc76-4x9p](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-fjgf-rc76-4x9p) CVE-2025-7338 | vulnerability | no | 2.0.2 | 2025-07-17 | Data from OSV (osv.dev), which serves the GitHub and PyPI advisory databases and the OpenSSF malicious-package records; checked 5 Nov 2026. ## Field reports on the Forge No field reports on 2.5.0 yet.
