Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - jsPDF is a library to generate PDFs in JavaScript. Prior to version 4.2.1, user control of arguments of
 the `createAnnotation` method allows users to inject arbitrary PDF objects, such as JavaScript actions. If
 given the possibility to pass unsanitized input to the following method, a user can inject arbitrary PDF
 objects, such as JavaScript actions, which might trigger when the PDF is opened or interacted with the
 `createAnnotation`: `color` parameter. The vulnerability has been fixed in [email protected]. As a workaround,
 sanitize user input before passing it to the vulnerable API members. (CVE-2026-31898)
