| Description | Password Pusher is an open source application to communicate sensitive information over the web. Prior to versions 1.69.3 and 2.4.2, a security issue in OSS PasswordPusher allowed unauthenticated creation of file-type pushes through a generic JSON API create path under certain configurations. This could bypass the intended authentication boundary for file push creation. This issue has been patched in versions 1.69.3 and 2.4.2. |
