Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from insecure HTTP downloads of executables, but the provided information contains no actual code examples, commit diffs, or file paths. While the advisory clearly describes the insecure download pattern (CWE-311), the specific functions implementing this behavior cannot be identified without access to the package's source code. The package's age (unmaintained since 2013) and lack of available patch/commit details make concrete function identification impossible with the given data. A typical vulnerable pattern would involve HTTP-based file retrieval (e.g., using http.get()
instead of https.get()
), but this remains speculative without code evidence.
