Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere through the misconfiguration of AddType handlers. An attacker can disclose source code of local content by requesting files indirectly that should otherwise be processed differently.

Note:

This vulnerability is caused by a partial fix for CVE-2024-39884 that ignores some use of the legacy content-type based configuration of handlers.
