PatchSiren cyber security CVE debrief
CVE-2026-64622 Jovancoding CVE debrief
The Network-AI npm package, specifically versions 5.12.2 through 5.13.3, contains a critical vulnerability. This vulnerability fails to apply the configured authorization check to certain GET read routes, allowing unauthenticated actors to access sensitive approval request details. The affected routes include GET /approvals/?status=all, GET /approvals/:id, GET /approvals/stats, and GET /approvals/sse. These routes disclose full ApprovalEntry content, including sensitive information such as action/target shell-command strings, file paths, justifications, and risk levels. Additionally, the responses include a hardcoded Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * header, which enables cross-origin disclosure from any website the operator visits.
