### Impact Duplicate logging of the input values in the `fetch:template` action in the Scaffolder meant that some of the secrets were not properly redacted. If you're not passing through `${{ secrets.x }}` to `fetch:template` there is no impact. ### Patches This issue has been resolved in `2.1.1` of the `scaffolder-backend` plugin. ### Workarounds Template Authors can remove the use of `${{ secrets }}` being used as an argument to `fetch:template`. ### References If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: Open an issue in the [Backstage repository](https://github.com/backstage/backstage) Visit our Discord, linked to in [Backstage README](https://github.com/backstage/backstage)

### Summary Following https://github.com/withastro/astro/security/advisories/GHSA-cq8c-xv66-36gw, there's still an Open Redirect vulnerability in a subset of Astro deployment scenarios. ### Details Astro 5.12.8 fixed a case where `https://example.com//astro.build/press` would redirect to the external origin `//astro.build/press`. However, with the Node deployment adapter in standalone mode and `trailingSlash` set to `"always"` in the Astro configuration, `https://example.com//astro.build/press` still redirects to `//astro.build/press`. ### Proof of Concept 1. Create a new minimal Astro project (`astro@5.12.8`) 2. Configure it to use the Node adapter (`@astrojs/node@9.4.0`) and force trailing slashes: ```js // astro.config.mjs import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config'; import node from '@astrojs/node'; export default defineConfig({ trailingSlash: 'always', adapter: node({ mode: 'standalone' }), }); ``` 3. Build the site by running `astro build`....
