Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Actual Sync Server versions before 26.7.0 (npm package @actual-app/sync-server) have a flaw in the CORS proxy's GitHub API allowlist check, which uses a prefix match without a path boundary. When the server's GitHub token is configured and the proxy is enabled, any authenticated Actual user can reach private repositories whose names start with an allowlisted plugin repository name, such as acme/plugin-private for acme/plugin, and read their contents through the server's token. Upgrade to version 26.7.0 or later, which contains the fix.
