Overview

snyk-broker is a package that proxies access between snyk.io and your Git repositories, such as GitHub Enterprise, GitHub.com and Bitbucket Server. Snyk Broker can also be used to enable a secure connection with your on-premise Jira deployment.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary File Read. It allows arbitrary file reads for users with access to Snyk's internal network by renaming files to match whitelisted paths.
