CVE-2026-29186
backstage/plugin-techdocs-node: TechDocs Mkdocs configuration key enables arbitrary code execution
Sévérité par source
Le label propre à Trivy est CRITICAL. Critique selon NVD. Plus basse selon GHSA (élevée), Red Hat (élevée).
Description
Backstage is an open framework for building developer portals. Prior to version 1.14.3, this is a configuration bypass vulnerability that enables arbitrary code execution. The @backstage/plugin-techdocs-node package uses an allowlist to filter dangerous MkDocs configuration keys during the documentation build process. A gap in this allowlist allows attackers to craft an mkdocs.yml that causes arbitrary Python code execution, completely bypassing TechDocs' security controls. This issue has been patched in version 1.14.3.
