Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization due to insufficient enforcement of root namespace restrictions in the catalog API. An attacker can modify plugin registrations, including removing existing registrations, creating invalid ones, or registering installed plugins, by using privileged tokens from a child namespace's sys/ mount, potentially causing service disruption.
