CVE-2026-34775: Electron: nodeIntegrationInWorker not correctly scoped in shared renderer processes

April 3, 2026 (updated April 6, 2026)

The nodeIntegrationInWorker webPreference was not correctly scoped in all configurations. In certain process-sharing scenarios, workers spawned in frames configured with nodeIntegrationInWorker: false could still receive Node.js integration.

Apps are only affected if they enable nodeIntegrationInWorker. Apps that do not use nodeIntegrationInWorker are not affected.
