How to fix?

Upgrade caffeinated-whale-cli to version 0.14.0 or higher.

Overview

caffeinated-whale-cli is an A CLI tool to help manage Frappe Docker instances.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Default Permissions due to insecure file permissions. The cache directory and database file are created without enforcing restrictive access controls, causing them to inherit permissive default permissions. An attacker can exploit this by accessing these files on the same system, allowing unauthorized retrieval of cached credentials, API keys, or other sensitive data.
