16 replies
Last updated: Jan 19, 2022
Our security team has found there is a vulnerability in the 
@sanity/desk-tool
. When I run 
yarn audit
you can see the issue. Is it possible to update the dependency of immer to 9.0.6? This is the critical vulnerabilities:

Thanks for reporting, Shawn. Looking into this now!

Hey Shawn, thanks for nudging here
Someone’s very kindly put in a PR to update this (which requires a bump in 
@reduxjs/toolkit
)
https://github.com/robinpyon/sanity-plugin-media/pull/54
This will need to be reviewed but should be merged shortly

one of my developers also noted that the issue is in the portable-text-editor as well. This was his comments to me:
Open issue in the sanity project: 
https://github.com/sanity-io/sanity/issues/2484
the critical issue is in their 
portable-text-editor
 package and is due to the version of 
slate
 being outdated: https://github.com/sanity-io/sanity/blob/next/packages/%40sanity/portable-text-editor/package.json#L47 

slate
 published an update in version 
slate@0.66.0
 that fixes this vulnerability: https://github.com/ianstormtaylor/slate/releases?q=immer&amp;expanded=true

Just curious if there is any update on above security issues?

Hey
user B
– just wanted to say we haven’t forgotten about this! I’ll be able to look into this next week
Nov 4, 2021, 10:16 PM
subscribing for updates as we too have noticed this in the last few days, thanks for your support Sanity folks
Nov 10, 2021, 10:38 AM
could you pass on any firm timescales?
Nov 10, 2021, 10:56 AM
I can confirm that 
sanity-plugin-media
has since been patched (
1.4.4
) to address the above vulnerability. Thanks for your patience and for nudging here!
Re: 
@sanity/portable-text-editor
– I can’t provide much by the way of timescale here, except that it’s been addressed internally and will be dropping soon

thank you!

Any more of an update on the 
@sanity/portable-text-editor
to fix the critical vulnerability?
Nov 30, 2021, 7:10 PM

Nothing which hasn’t already been said I’m afraid! It’s been addressed by the studio team (and requires a major dependency bump at that), but I can’t give a timeline here.
What I can confirm is that the immer vulnerability doesn’t affect the studio as it only affects server environments – but it is something that will be resolved soon. Thank you for your patience!

Thank you for the response!

just FYI this was merged in yesterday which appears to resolve the security issues we're tracking

https://github.com/sanity-io/sanity/pull/3014
should hopefully see some non-vulnerable libraries being published soon
