Backstage, an open platform for building developer portals, is affected by a critical vulnerability whose exploitation could have a serious impact on a targeted enterprise, according to cloud-native application security firm Oxeye.
Spotify created Backstage and gave it to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. It offers a catalog for keeping track of all the user’s software, project-creation templates, and open source plugins that can be used to increase the system’s customizability and functionality. Numerous well-known companies, such as Netflix, American Airlines, Doordash, Palo Alto Networks, HP, Siemens, LinkedIn, and Booz Allen Hamilton, use the platform.
