CVE-2026-106459 · Severity: high · CVSS 8.5 · Published 2026-10-06

Backstage is an open framework for building developer portals.

An attacker with access to scaffolder actions could exfiltrate credentials or perform unauthorized actions against Sentry or other systems.

Vendors: Backstage, npm.

How to fix

@backstage/plugin-scaffolder-backend-module-sentry (npm): upgrade to 0.3.8 or later
```
npm install @backstage/plugin-scaffolder-backend-module-sentry@0.3.8
```

Move any custom action-level apiBaseUrl values to the scaffolder.sentry.apiBaseUrl configuration setting before upgrading to the fixed version.

Technical details

The @backstage/plugin-scaffolder-backend-module-sentry package failed to properly validate the Sentry API base URL in scaffolder actions, allowing authenticated users to override it to arbitrary destinations. This enables credential disclosure and Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attacks. The fix restricts API requests to the configured API base URL and requires custom apiBaseUrl values to be moved to configuration before upgrading.
