Advisory Weakness Curation

hubl-server downloads resources over HTTP Affected versions of `hubl-server` insecurely download dependencies over an unencrypted HTTP connection. In scenarios where an attacker has a privileged network position, it is possible to intercept the responses and replace the dependencies with malicious ones, resulting in code execution on the system running `hubl-server`. ## Recommendation No patch is currently available for this vulnerability, and it has not seen any updates since 2015. The best mitigation is currently to avoid using this package, using a different package if available. Alternatively, the risk of exploitation can be reduced by ensuring that this package is not installed while connected to a public network. If the package is installed on a private network, the only people who can exploit this vulnerability are those who have compromised yo

Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information During installation hubl-server downloads a set of dependencies from `api.hubapi.com.` It appears in the code that these files are downloaded over HTTPS however the `api.hubapi.com` endpoint redirects to an HTTP url. Because of this behavior an attacker with the ability to man-in-the-middle a developer or system performing a package installation could compromise the integrity of the installation.
