How to Fix GHSA-4vr3-9v7h-5f8v

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Gw2Sharp dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Gw2Sharp fixed: 0.3.1 
Upgrade Gw2Sharp to 0.3.1
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

inspect dependencies for Gw2Sharp

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by GHSA-4vr3-9v7h-5f8v, inspect your project dependencies for Gw2Sharp:

inspect dependencies for Gw2Sharp

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Gw2Sharp in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.3.1), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under General Security Weakness. In Gw2Sharp, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

## Leaking cached authenticated requests ### Impact If you've been using one `MemoryCacheMethod` object in multiple instances of `Gw2WebApiClient` and are requesting authenticated endpoints with different access tokens, then you are likely to run into this bug. When using an instance of `MemoryCacheMethod` and using it with multiple instances of `Gw2WebApiClient`, there's a possibility that cached authenticated responses are leaking to another request to the same endpoint, but with a different Guild Wars 2 access token. The latter request wouldn't start however, and would return the first cached response immediately. This means that the second response (or later responses) may contain the same data as the first response, therefore leaking data from another authenticated endpoint. The occurence of this is limited however. The Guild Wars 2 API doesn't use the `Expires` header on most (if not all) authenticated endpoints. This header is checked when caching responses. If this header isn't available, the response isn't cached at all. You should still update to at least version 0.3.1 in order to be certain that it won't happen. ### Patches This bug has been fixed in version 0.3.1. When using an authenticated endpoint, it will prepend the SHA-1 hash of the access token to the cache id. ### Workarounds For version 0.3.0 and lower, you can use one separate instance of `MemoryCacheMethod` per `Gw2WebApiClient` if you need to use it. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, you can open an issue in [the Gw2Sharp repository](https://github.com/Archomeda/Gw2Sharp) or contact me on [Discord](https://discord.gg/hNcpDT3).
