Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
ApostropheCMS's @apostrophecms/import-export module, in versions before 3.7.1, publishes export archives under a deterministic filename (site shortName, document type, timestamp, and format extension) with no secret token, at a public uploads URL. An unauthenticated attacker who can guess that path can download the archive over HTTP while it remains present, which by default is 10 minutes, so the exported content can be exposed without a session. Upgrade @apostrophecms/import-export to version 3.7.1 or later, which the source lists as the fixed version.
