    HFS user adding a "web link" in HFS is vulnerable to "target=_blank" exploit

    GHSA-xcxh-6cv4-q8p8

    Affected
    • npm hfs <= 0.57.9
    Fixed in
    0.57.10· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    When adding a "web link" to the HFS virtual filesystem, the frontend opens it with target="blank" but without the rel="noopener noreferrer" attribute. This allows the opened page to use the window.opener property to change the location of the original HFS tab. Details While most modern browsers have fixes already implemented for this target="blank" exploit at the browser level, users on outdated browsers remain vulnerable.

    rejetto HFS vulnerable to OS Command Execution by remote authenticated users

    CVE-2024-39943 · GHSA-5f4x-hwv2-w9w2

    Affected
    • npm hfs < 0.52.10
    Fixed in
    0.52.10· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    rejetto HFS (aka HTTP File Server) 3 before 0.52.10 on Linux, UNIX, and macOS allows OS command execution by remote authenticated users (if they have Upload permissions). This occurs because a shell is used to execute df (i.e., with execSync instead of spawnSync in childprocess in Node.js).

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 0.52.10 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
