Summary
Sensitive Data Exposure in seneca
Details

Versions of seneca prior to 3.9.0 are vulnerable to Sensitive Data Exposure. When a process using the package crashes all environment variables are printed. This may leak sensitive data such as access keys, especially given scenarios when log-monitoring systems store the error output.

Recommendation

Upgrade to version 3.9.0 or later.
