Security vulnerabilities and automated fixes for http redirect issues
1 post found
electron-updater and electron-builder rely on builder-util-runtime to fetch update manifests and artifacts over HTTP. A flaw in that shared HTTP executor allowed credential headers attached to the original update-feed request to be re-sent after a redirect, exposing them to any host the redirect pointed to. The project fixes this by upgrading builder-util-runtime to 9.7.0 and collapsing a duplicate, older copy of the package that electron-updater had pinned on its own.
