@asymmetric-effort/specifyjs: URL parse failure silently allows request
Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Affected | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| npm | @asymmetric-effort/specifyjs | < 0.2.136 | 0.2.136 |
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
## Finding
**Location**: `core/src/shared/secure-fetch.ts:42-45`
When `new URL()` throws a parse error, the `assertSecureUrl` function returned without throwing, silently allowing the request to proceed without HTTPS validation.
## Status
**Fixed in v0.2.136** — The catch block now throws an error instead of silently returning.
