CVE-2025-56200 is a URL validation bypass vulnerability in validator.js versions up to 13.15.15, affecting the validator_project validator. It arises because the isURL() function uses '://' for protocol parsing, while browsers use ':', enabling attackers to craft malicious URLs that bypass validation. This medium-severity vulnerability (CVSS 6.1) has a low attack complexity and can lead to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) and Open Redirect attacks, with potential impacts on confidentiality and integrity. Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, no public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), and minimal community discussion or media coverage.
