Description

Backstage is an open framework for building developer portals. Prior to 1.14.6, the @backstage/plugin-techdocs-node package is affected by improper validation of mkdocs theme configuration in techdocs. When TechDocs is configured to build documentation locally or in a container, a user with write access to a registered repository can include configuration values in mkdocs.yml that cause arbitrary code execution during the documentation build process. This issue is fixed in versions 1.14.6 and 1.15.4.

• linuxfoundation backstage plugin-techdocs-node (< 1.14.6) • linuxfoundation backstage plugin-techdocs-node (>= 1.15.0 < 1.15.4) • linuxfoundation backstage (< 1.50.5) • linuxfoundation backstage (>= 1.51.1 < 1.54.6) • linuxfoundation backstage 1.51.0
