description
@backstage/plugin-techdocs-node releases before 1.14.6 and 1.15.0 through 1.15.3 improperly handle attacker-controlled TechDocs configuration. An authenticated user permitted to register or modify a TechDocs source can cause code to run in the documentation-generation environment, with access limited to resources available to its backend or build container.
mitigation
Upgrade @backstage/plugin-techdocs-node to 1.14.6 or 1.15.4, as appropriate for the deployed release line. Restrict TechDocs source registration and repository write access, and isolate documentation builds from secrets and unnecessary network access.
fixed in 1.14.6, 1.15.4
outcome
Contextual: an exploit technique exists, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
