Details

Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor in semantic-release ### Impact _What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?_ Secrets that would normally be masked by semantic-release can be accidentally disclosed if they contain characters that are excluded from uri encoding by [encodeURI](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/encodeURI). Occurrence is further limited to execution contexts where push access to the related repository is not available without modifying the repository url to inject credentials. ### Patches _Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_ Fixed in 19.0.3 ### Workarounds _Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?_ Secrets that do not contain characters that are excluded from encoding with `encodeURI` when included in a URL are already masked properly. ### References _Are there any links users can visit to find out more?_ * https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release/releases/tag/v19.0.3 * https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/encodeURI ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open a discussion in [semantic-release discussions](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release/discussions)
