Summary
stigmem-node's federation insecure transport settings may allow non-loopback cleartext federation
Details

Impact

Stigmem nodes with federation enabled could be configured to run without mTLS outside loopback-only local development. In affected deployments, federation traffic may traverse the network without the intended transport protection. Impacted users are operators who enabled federation and explicitly disabled mTLS while binding the node to a non-loopback URL.

Patches

Patched in 0.9.0a2. The node now refuses this configuration unless insecure federation is limited to loopback-only local development.

Workarounds

Before upgrading, operators should enable mTLS for federation or ensure federation endpoints are bound only to loopback/private test environments and are not reachable by untrusted networks.

Upgrade

Upgrade to the patched release:

pip install --upgrade --pre stigmem-node

If developers install through the Stigmem meta-package instead, they should use the matching extra for deployments, for example:

pip install --upgrade --pre 'stigmem[node]'

GHSA-M59H-42JF-CPHR

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-23 20:25 – Updated: 2026-03-30 13:55
VLAI
Summary
Sprig Plugin for Craft CMS potentially discloses sensitive information via Sprig Playground
Details

Admin users, and users with explicit permission to access the Sprig Playground, could potentially expose the security key, credentials, and other sensitive configuration data, in addition to running the hashData() signing function.

This issue was mitigated in versions 3.7.2 and 2.15.2 by disabling access to the Sprig Playground entirely when devMode is disabled, by default. It is possible to override this behaviour using a new enablePlaygroundWhenDevModeDisabled that defaults to false.

Mitigation
Build and Compilation Distribution

Remove debug code before deploying the application.

CAPEC-121: Exploit Non-Production Interfaces

An adversary exploits a sample, demonstration, test, or debug interface that is unintentionally enabled on a production system, with the goal of gleaning information or leveraging functionality that would otherwise be unavailable.

CAPEC-661: Root/Jailbreak Detection Evasion via Debugging

An adversary inserts a debugger into the program entry point of a mobile application to modify the application binary, with the goal of evading Root/Jailbreak detection. Mobile device users often Root/Jailbreak their devices in order to gain administrative control over the mobile operating system and/or to install third-party mobile applications that are not provided by authorized application stores (e.g. Google Play Store and Apple App Store). Rooting/Jailbreaking a mobile device also provides users with access to system debuggers and disassemblers, which can be leveraged to exploit applications by dumping the application's memory at runtime in order to remove or bypass signature verification methods. This further allows the adversary to evade Root/Jailbreak detection mechanisms, which can result in execution of administrative commands, obtaining confidential data, impersonating legitimate users of the application, and more.
