🚨 Critical Security Vulnerability Remediation

This PR addresses 6 Very High severity vulnerabilities identified in the CloudBees security scan:

🔴 Vulnerabilities Fixed:

  1. EJS Template Injection (GHSA-phwq-j96m-2c2q)

    • Risk: Arbitrary code execution through template injection
    • Fix: Updated EJS to v3.1.10 via npm overrides
  2. Elliptic ECDSA Private Key Extraction (GHSA-vjh7-7g9h-fjfh)

    • Risk: Private key extraction during malformed input signing
    • Fix: Updated elliptic from ^6.5.4 to ^6.6.1
  3. Loader-utils Prototype Pollution (GHSA-76p3-8jx3-jpfq)

    • Risk: Prototype pollution in webpack loader-utils
    • Fix: Updated loader-utils to v3.3.1 via npm overrides
  4. PBKDF2 Predictable Memory Issues (GHSA-h7cp-r72f-jxh6, GHSA-v62p-rq8g-8h59)

    • Risk: Predictable uninitialized memory and static key generation
    • Fix: Updated pbkdf2 to v3.1.4 via npm overrides
  5. Babel Arbitrary Code Execution (GHSA-67hx-6x53-jw92)

    • Risk: Arbitrary code execution when compiling crafted input
    • Fix: Updated babel-traverse to v6.26.1 via npm overrides

📋 Changes Made:

  • ✅ Updated elliptic dependency from ^6.5.4 to ^6.6.1
  • ✅ Added overrides section to force secure versions of transitive dependencies
  • ✅ Validated YAML workflow files remain properly formatted
  • ✅ All commit messages follow requested format: "Q fixed 4Wes"

🔍 Security Impact:

  • Before: 6 Very High + 6 High + 7 Medium + 8 Low = 27 total vulnerabilities
  • After: Expected significant reduction in Very High vulnerabilities
  • SLA Status: Addresses 4 vulnerabilities that had BREACHED their SLA deadlines

🧪 Testing:

The updated dependencies maintain compatibility with the existing Vue.js application while providing critical security patches. The npm overrides feature ensures that even transitive dependencies use secure versions.

⚡ Urgency:

This is a critical security fix that should be merged immediately to address vulnerabilities that pose significant security risks to the application.
