A flaw was found in Electron, a framework for building desktop applications. In specific scenarios where applications enable Node.js integration, a misconfiguration could allow workers, which are background scripts, to gain Node.js capabilities even when explicitly disabled. This could enable a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or access sensitive information within the application. Apps are only affected if they enable nodeIntegrationInWorker. Apps that do not use nodeIntegrationInWorker are not affected.
