# Node.js Dependency Security Update Research Report

**Date:** 2026-01-29
**Bundle:** Node.js Dependencies in `.github/workflows/package.json`
**Priority:** HIGH (Security Release)

## Executive Summary

This report covers a bundled update of two Node.js dependencies in the gh-aw workflows directory. The update includes a **critical security release** for `hono` (4.11.4 → 4.11.7) that fixes multiple vulnerabilities, and a minor version update for `@sentry/mcp-server` (0.27.0 → 0.29.0).

**Recommendation:** ✅ **APPROVE AND MERGE** - Both updates are safe to bundle and should be merged immediately due to the security fixes in hono.

---

## Updated Packages

### 1. hono: 4.11.4 → 4.11.7 (Transitive Dependency)

**Type:** Patch Release (Security)
**Dependency Path:** `@sentry/mcp-server` → `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk` → `@hono/node-server` → `hono`
**Impact:** HIGH PRIORITY - Fixes 4 security vulnerabilities

#### Security Vulnerabilities Fixed

| CVE | Severity | Component | Description |
|-----|----------|-----------|-------------|
| CVE-2026-24398 | Moderate | IP Restriction Middleware | IPv4 address validation bypass allowing unauthorized IP-based access control bypass |
| CVE-2026-24472 | Moderate | Cache Middleware | Improper caching of responses with `Cache-Control: private` or `no-store`, leading to information disclosure and Web Cache Deception risk |
| CVE-2026-24473 | Moderate | Serve Static Middleware (Cloudflare) | Arbitrary key read vulnerability allowing unintended access to internal asset keys |
| CVE-2026-24771 | Moderate | hono/jsx ErrorBoundary | Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability due to improper escaping of untrusted strings |

#### Impact on gh-aw

- **Usage:** Hono is used as a peer dependency through `@hono/node-server` in the MCP SDK
- **Risk Assessment:** Low direct impact as gh-aw workflows primarily use the MCP SDK, not the vulnerable components directly
- **Mitigation:** Update prevents potential future vulnerabilities if these components are used

#### Breaking Changes

**None identified.** This is a patch release focused on security fixes with no API changes.

---

### 2. @sentry/mcp-server: 0.27.0 → 0.29.0 (Direct Dependency)

**Type:** Minor Release
**Usage:** Used in MCP inspector workflow for Sentry integration
**Impact:** LOW - Standard minor version update

#### Changes Summary

- **Release Type:** Minor version (0.27.0 → 0.28.0 → 0.29.0)
- **Breaking Changes:** None expected for minor versions following semver
- **Changelog:** No detailed public changelog available for these releases
- **Stability:** Sentry MCP Server is production-ready with ongoing development

#### Impact on gh-aw

- **Direct Usage:** Referenced in `.github/workflows/shared/mcp/sentry.md`
- **Affected Workflow:** `mcp-inspector.md` (recompiled to `mcp-inspector.lock.yml`)
- **Risk Assessment:** Low - Minor version updates typically maintain backward compatibility
- **Testing:** Standard functionality maintained, no breaking changes observed

#### Breaking Changes

**None identified.** Minor version updates follow semantic versioning and maintain backward compatibility.

## Testing and Validation

### Security Validation

```bash
# Before update
npm audit
# 1 moderate severity vulnerability (4 CVEs in hono)

# After update
npm audit
# found 0 vulnerabilities ✓
```

### Dependency Verification

```bash
# Verified versions
npm list hono
# └─┬ @sentry/mcp-server@0.29.0
# └─┬ @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.25.2
# └─┬ @hono/node-server@1.19.7
# └── hono@4.11.7 ✓

npm list @sentry/mcp-server
# └── @sentry/mcp-server@0.29.0 ✓
```

### Build and Test Validation

- ✅ Code formatting: `make fmt` passed
- ✅ Go unit tests: Test suite passed
- ✅ Workflow compilation: `gh-aw compile` successful
- ✅ Lock file generation: Updated without errors

---

## Risk Assessment

### Overall Risk Level: **LOW** ✅

| Aspect | Risk Level | Notes |
|--------|-----------|-------|
| Breaking Changes | **None** | Patch and minor updates maintain compatibility |
| Security Impact | **High Benefit** | Fixes 4 CVEs in hono (moderate severity) |
| Dependency Depth | **Low Concern** | Hono is a transitive dependency, updates handled automatically |
| Testing Coverage | **Adequate** | Standard test suite passed, no failures |
| Rollback Complexity | **Low** | Simple revert if issues arise |

### Recommendations

1. ✅ **Merge immediately** - Security fixes take priority
2. ✅ **Monitor** - Watch for any MCP-related issues in next 24 hours
3. ✅ **Document** - Update issue checklist as complete
