Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure via the export process in the images API endpoint. An attacker can determine the existence of projects by analyzing differences in HTTP status codes returned when querying with crafted fingerprints, such as using wildcard patterns, without authentication. This enables enumeration of project names through brute-force requests, potentially exposing sensitive or unpublished project identifiers.
