The advisory

SmarterTools SmarterMail contains a missing authentication for critical function vulnerability in the ConnectToHub API method. This could allow the attacker to point the SmarterMail instance to a malicious HTTP server which serves the malicious OS command and could lead to command execution.

Check your whole app

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.
