The advisory
Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) and Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) contain an information disclosure vulnerability. An attacker could retrieve memory contents on an affected device, which could lead to the disclosure of confidential information due to a buffer tracking issue when the software parses invalid URLs that are requested from the web services interface. This vulnerability affects only specific AnyConnect and WebVPN configurations.

Dependencies are only half of it. Free and read-only: before you push, run npx shippable-dev scan localhost:3000 in your project folder, no account needed. For your live app, you prove it's yours with a one-line tag first.
