GHSA-h7rp-cf8h-j98x: Electron: Context isolation bypass via Function.prototype.bind hijack

Impact Apps that expose Promise-returning functions to web content via contextBridge may be vulnerable to a context isolation bypass. Untrusted web content could obtain access to the isolated preload world and, through it, every capability the preload script has. In renderers without a sandbox, or with nodeIntegration enabled, this may escalate to Node.js access. Apps are affected if they expose Promise-returning functions via contextBridge — the standard pattern for wrapping ipcRenderer.invoke — in windows that load untrusted content. Apps that never load untrusted content in those windows are not affected. Workarounds There are no app side workarounds, you must update to a patched version of Electron. Fixed Versions - 42.0.0-beta.5 - 41.2.2 - 40.9.2 - 39.8.9 For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, email Electron at security@electronjs.org
