GHSA-hq75-xg7r-rx6c: Better Call routing bug can lead to Cache Deception

### Summary Using a CDN that caches (`/**/*.png`, `/**/*.json`, `/**/*.css`, etc...) requests, a cache deception can emerge. This could lead to unauthorized access to user sessions and personal data when cached responses are served to other users. ### Details The vulnerability occurs in the request processing logic where path sanitization is insufficient. The library splits the path using `config.basePath` but doesn't properly validate the remaining path components. This allows specially crafted requests that appear to be static assets (like `/api/auth/get-session/api/auth/image.png` assuming `config.basePath`=`/api/auth`) to bypass typical CDN cache exclusion rules while actually returning sensitive data. The problematic code [here](https://github.com/Bekacru/better-call/blob/8b6f13e24fad7f4666a582601517bb3232d4f4af/src/router.ts#L124): ```js const processRequest = async (request: Request) => { const url = new URL(request.url); const path = config?.basePath ? url.pathname.spl...

GHSA-ggmv-j932-q89q: Chall-Manager's HTTP Gateway is vulnerable to DoS due to missing header timeout

### Impact The HTTP Gateway processes headers, but with no timeout set. With a Slowloris attack, an attacker could cause Denial of Service (DoS). Exploitation does not require authentication nor authorization, so anyone can exploit it. It should nonetheless not be exploitable as it is highly recommended to bury Chall-Manager deep within the infrastructure due to its large capabilities, so no users could reach the system. ### Patches Patch has been implemented by [commit `1385bd8`](https://github.com/ctfer-io/chall-manager/commit/1385bd869142651146cd0b123085f91cec698636) and shipped in [`v0.1.4`](https://github.com/ctfer-io/chall-manager/releases/tag/v0.1.4). ### Workarounds No workaround exist. ### References N/A

GHSA-r7fm-3pqm-ww5w: Chall-Manager's scenario decoding process does not check for zip bombs

### Impact When decoding a scenario (i.e. a zip archive), the size of the decoded content is not checked, potentially leading to zip bombs decompression. Exploitation does not require authentication nor authorization, so anyone can exploit it. It should nonetheless not be exploitable as it is highly recommended to bury Chall-Manager deep within the infrastructure due to its large capabilities, so no users could reach the system. ### Patches Patch has been implemented by [commit `14042aa`](https://github.com/ctfer-io/chall-manager/commit/14042aa66a577caee777e10fe09adcf2587d20dd) and shipped in [`v0.1.4`](https://github.com/ctfer-io/chall-manager/releases/tag/v0.1.4). ### Workarounds No workaround exist. ### References N/A.

GHSA-3gv2-v3jx-r9fh: Chall-Manager is vulnerable to Path Traversal when extracting/decoding a zip archive

### Impact When decoding a scenario (i.e. a zip archive), the path of the file to write is not checked, potentially leading to zip slips. Exploitation does not require authentication nor authorization, so anyone can exploit it. It should nonetheless not be exploitable as it is **highly** recommended to bury Chall-Manager deep within the infrastructure due to its large capabilities, so no users could reach the system. ### Patches Patch has been implemented by [commit `47d188f`](https://github.com/ctfer-io/chall-manager/commit/47d188fda5e3f86285e820f12ad9fb6f9930662c) and shipped in [`v0.1.4`](https://github.com/ctfer-io/chall-manager/releases/tag/v0.1.4). ### Workarounds No workaround exist. ### References N/A.
