- postcss 8.5.15 -> 8.5.23 (GHSA-r28c-9q8g-f849, source-map path traversal)
- brace-expansion override ^5.0.7 -> ^5.0.8 (GHSA-mh99-v99m-4gvg, DoS)
react-router: pin react-router-dom to exact 7.18.1 (direct dep) and react-router
to 7.18.1 via overrides (transitive). 7.18.1 is the most-patched 7.x -- it clears
14 advisories that older 7.x releases carry, several reachable from a SPA (open-
redirect XSS in Link/useNavigate, route-matching DoS). The one remaining advisory,
GHSA-qwww-vcr4-c8h2, is RSC-mode-only; Bambuddy is a Vite SPA using BrowserRouter
with no RSC runtime (@react-router/server not installed), so the path is
unreachable. The only version that fully clears npm audit is the 8.3.0 major
(no react-router-dom 8.x exists; it needs migrating 50 import sites plus a React
peer bump), deferred as its own change.
Because a version pin can't stop npm from reporting the theoretical 7.11.0
downgrade as fixAvailable, the ci.yml (hard) and security.yml (nightly issue)
audit gates gain a narrow, documented allowlist keyed on the GHSA id. It resolves
the react-router-dom -> react-router advisory chain and stays fail-closed: a
different advisory on react-router still fails the gate, and an isSemVerMajor
guard drops the exemption the moment a non-major fix ships, forcing us to take it.
The GitHub runner's Python toolcache ships setuptools 79.0.1, which
pip-audit flags for PYSEC-2026-3447 (fixed in 83.0.0), failing the
blocking Backend Security job. A fix version exists, so upgrade
setuptools in the install step rather than --ignore-vuln. Applied to
both ci.yml (blocking) and security.yml (scheduled scan).
GitHub forces Node-20 actions to run on Node 24 starting 2026-06-02 and
removes Node 20 from the runner on 2026-09-16. Bumping each action to
its first Node-24 major now gets us ahead of both deadlines and silences
the deprecation warnings already firing in every CI run.
Bumps (across ci.yml, security.yml, codeql.yml, auto-label-area.yml,
issue-closed.yml, stale.yml):
- actions/checkout v4 -> v6
- actions/setup-python v5 -> v6
- actions/setup-node v4 -> v6
- actions/cache v4 -> v5
- actions/upload-artifact v4 -> v7
- actions/github-script v7 -> v9
- actions/stale v9 -> v10
- docker/setup-buildx v3 -> v4
- docker/build-push v5 -> v7
Verified each major's breaking-change notes against our usage:
- setup-node v6 limits auto-cache to npm only; we already pass
cache: 'npm' explicitly, so nothing changes.
- github-script v9 drops require('@actions/github'); none of our
scripts use it (only require('fs') and the injected github/context
globals).
- setup-buildx v4 removes deprecated inputs; we call it with no
inputs.
- build-push v6 enables build summaries by default; informational,
can disable via DOCKER_BUILD_SUMMARY=false env if it gets noisy.
codeql-action stays on v4 (already runs on Node 24). Trivy and
github-repo-stats are Docker actions and aren't affected by the
Node-20 deprecation.
- requirements.txt: pin idna>=3.15 to clear ReDoS in idna.encode() on
crafted Unicode payloads. Transitive via anyio/httpx/requests/yarl,
so the explicit floor stops a future downstream loosening from
silently downgrading us.
- security.yml: permanently --ignore-vuln CVE-2025-45768 (PyJWT). The
advisory is disputed by the maintainers — "key length is chosen by
the application" — and no fix version exists. Bambuddy is safe:
auto-generates secrets via secrets.token_urlsafe(64) and rejects
file-loaded secrets shorter than 32 chars (auth.py:177, :184).
- security.yml: drop the stale Pygments --ignore-vuln CVE-2026-4539.
Pygments has been patched upstream; the ignore no longer matches
anything.
- Fix defusedxml import style in print_queue.py to be recognized by Bandit
(use `import defusedxml.ElementTree as ET` not `from defusedxml import`)
- Update Trivy scanner version from 0.65.0 to 0.69.1
