Technical summary

The OmniBlocks monorepo vulnerability (CVE-2026-54594) occurs when a user creates an off-topic issue and repeatedly edits its description before conversion completes, causing multiple discussions to be created for the same issue. This is due to a .github/workflows/disc.yml workflow that runs for issues opened and edited events, invoking the createDiscussion mutation without recording or suppressing duplicate runs. The issue is fixed with commit 627e0f0a16a7d74b09128106b57dd7e85d2545df, which addresses the duplicate discussion creation.
