Please use the GitHub Security Advisory "Report a Vulnerability" tab. Do not open a public issue for a security report.
Expect an acknowledgement within a few days. This project is developed alongside other work, so a fix is agreed rather than promised by a date — the advisory is where that conversation happens.
Only the latest published version of @abap2ui5/linter and
@abap2ui5/render-runtime is supported. Both are still on the 0.x line
(the rule set is growing, and a new rule can change a consumer's verdict), so
a fix ships as the next release rather than as a patch to an older line.
Worth knowing before assessing a report:
- It has zero runtime dependencies.
npm i @abap2ui5/linterinstalls one package and nothing else. The UI5 runtime the render gate needs is an optional peer (@abap2ui5/render-runtime), so it is installed only when someone asks for it. - It is published with provenance. Releases go out from
.github/workflows/release.ymlthrough npm trusted publishing (OIDC), so there is no long-lived npm token in this repository to leak, and every published tarball carries an attestation linking it to the commit and workflow that built it. Verify withnpm audit signatures. - The property gate reads source; it never executes it. ABAP classes and XML views are parsed and reconstructed statically.
- The render gate DOES execute code — it loads the reconstructed view in headless Chromium against a local OpenUI5 runtime. It is off unless the runtime is installed, it loads no remote resources, and the model it renders with is derived from the class rather than fetched. Still: running the render gate over untrusted sources runs untrusted markup in a browser, so treat it the way you would treat any build step over untrusted input.
- The composite Action passes every input through
env, never interpolated into arun:block, andnpm testasserts that it stays that way. A workflow-injection report against that path is very welcome.
- Findings the linter reports about your ABAP or your views — those are the product, not a vulnerability. Open an issue.
- A false positive or false negative in a rule. Also an issue.
