Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Output Neutralization for Logs via the LookupDispatchAction function. An attacker can manipulate log output by submitting specially crafted input, causing parts of the log message to appear as separate log lines and potentially misleading log consumers by injecting untrusted data into the logs.

Note: This package is retired, so no fix is expected.
