CVE-2024-29900

Electron Packager bundles Electron-based application source code with a renamed Electron executable and supporting files into folders ready for distribution. A random segment of ~1-10kb of Node.js heap memory allocated either side of a known buffer will be leaked into the final executable. This memory _could_ contain sensitive information such as environment variables, secrets files, etc. This issue is patched in 18.3.1.

Electron Packager incluye el código fuente de la aplicación basada en Electron con un ejecutable de Electron renombrado y archivos de soporte en carpetas listas para su distribución. Un segmento aleatorio de ~1-10kb de memoria dinámica de Node.js asignado a cada lado de un búfer conocido se filtrará al ejecutable final. Esta memoria _podría_ contener información confidencial como variables de entorno, archivos secretos, etc. Este problema se solucionó en 18.3.1.
