Nuxt: Route middleware not enforced when rendering `.server.vue` pages via `/__nuxt_island/page_*`
Get instant alerts when new vulnerabilities affect nuxt - before attackers find them.
Nuxt is an open-source web development framework for Vue.js. In Nuxt versions 3.11.0 to before 3.21.6 and 4.0.0-alpha.1 to before 4.4.6 and @nuxt/nitro-server versions 3.20.0 to before 3.21.6 and 4.0.0-alpha.1 to before 4.4.6, when experimental.componentIslands is enabled (default in Nuxt 4), any .server.vue file under pages/ is automatically registered as a server island under the key page_<routeName> and exposed via the /__nuxt_island/:name endpoint. Until this fix, requests through that endpoint rendered the page component directly via the SSR renderer without instantiating Vue Router, which meant route middleware declared on the page (including definePageMeta({ middleware })) did not run. This issue has been patched in versions 3.21.6 and 4.4.6.
