Occasionally, the next next line of the previous sibling is wrapped at the LayoutInline, and that its LineBreakObj() holds the reference to the LayoutInline. This patch marks such RootInlineBox dirty.

Overview

electron is a framework which lets you write cross-platform desktop applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Access Control via nested unserializable return value when using contextIsolation and contextBridge are affected. Exploiting this vulnerability allows code running in the main world context in the renderer to reach into the isolated Electron context and perform privileged actions.

Note

This issue is exploitable under either of two conditions:

1. If an API exposed to the main world via contextBridge can return an object or array that contains a JS object that cannot be serialized, such as a canvas rendering context. This would normally result in an Error: object could not be cloned exception being thrown.

2. If an API exposed to the main world via contextBridge has a return value that throws a user-generated exception while being sent over the bridge, such as a dynamic getter property on an object that throws an error when being computed.

Workaround

The app-side workaround is to ensure that such a case, as mentioned in the workaround section, is not possible.

Ensure all values returned from a function exposed over the context bridge are supported and that any objects returned from functions do not have dynamic getters that can throw exceptions.

Auditing your exposed API is likely to be quite difficult, so we strongly recommend you update to a patched version of Electron.

Remediation

Upgrade electron to version 23.2.3, 25.0.0-alpha.2 or higher.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution. Opening a BrowserView with sandbox: true or nativeWindowOpen: true and nodeIntegration: false results in a webContents where window.open() can be called and the newly opened child will have nodeIntegration enabled.

If for some reason you are unable to upgrade your Electron version, you can mitigate this issue by disabling all child web contents: view.webContents.on('-add-new-contents', e => e.preventDefault());

Overview

electron is a framework which lets you write cross-platform desktop applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Use After Free. An AudioContext is considered to have activity if it's not closed. Previously, suspended contexts were considered has having no activity, but that's not quite true since the context can be resumed at any time after. This would allow contexts to be collected prematurely even though the context was resumed. This causes the audio thread to access objects that are possibly deleted.

Overview

electron is a framework which lets you write cross-platform desktop applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') via the nodeIntegration function. An attacker can execute remote commands by exploiting a precondition that bypasses the Same Origin Policy (SOP). Combining an SOP bypass with a privileged URL internally used by this library, it is possible to execute native Node.js primitives in order to run OS commands on the user's host. Specifically, a chrome-devtools://devtools/bundled/inspector.html window could be used to eval a Node.js child_process.execFile API call.
