How to fix?

Upgrade org.webjars.npm:hono to version 4.12.2 or higher.

Overview

org.webjars.npm:hono is an Ultrafast web framework for the Edges

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to User Impersonation via the getConnInfo function in the adapter/aws-lambda/conninfo.ts‎ file. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to resources protected by IP-based access controls by supplying a crafted X-Forwarded-For header.

Note:

This is only exploitable if the deployment uses the AWS Lambda adapter behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) and relies on getConnInfo() for IP-based authorization decisions.
