Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Affected | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| npm | @backstage/plugin-scaffolder-backend-module-confluence-to-markdown | < 0.3.25 | 0.3.25 |
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Impact
Insufficient input validation in the Confluence to Markdown scaffolder module could allow an attacker to influence file write operations during template execution. Exploitation requires a Backstage user to run a template that processes attacker-influenced Confluence content.
### Patches
Patched in `@backstage/plugin-scaffolder-backend-module-confluence-to-markdown` version `0.3.25`
### Workarounds
If unable to update immediately:
- Restrict Confluence edit access to trusted users.
- Review Confluence page content before running scaffolder templates against untrusted pages.
