5.7.4 fixes a bug introduced in 5.7.3, in which the list_running_servers()
function attempts to parse HTML files as JSON, and consequently crashes
5.7.3 contains one security improvement and one security fix:
- Launch the browser with a local file which redirects to the server address
including the authentication token
This prevents another logged-in user from stealing the token from command line
arguments and authenticating to the server.
The single-use token previously used to mitigate this has been removed.
Thanks to Dr. Owain Kenway for suggesting the local file approach.
- Upgrade bootstrap to 3.4, fixing an XSS vulnerability, which has been
assigned CVE-2018-14041
5.7.2
5.7.2 contains a security fix preventing malicious directory names
from being able to execute javascript. CVE request pending.
5.7.1
5.7.1 contains a security fix preventing nbconvert endpoints from executing javascript with access to the server API. CVE request pending.
