Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity through the /v2/pkgs/tools/installed endpoint. An attacker can escalate their privileges to those of the user running the service by crafting an HTTP POST request.

Note:

This is only exploitable if the attacker has the ability to perform HTTP requests to the localhost interface, or is able to bypass the CORS configuration.
