Machine-written summary

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

Ember versions before 1.4.2 render fields from Caddy access logs, such as the request URI, to the operator's terminal without neutralising terminal escape and control sequences. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can send an HTTP request containing control bytes, which Caddy logs and Ember then displays in its TUI, letting the attacker spoof or hide log rows, write text to the clipboard, or change the window title. Upgrade to version 1.4.2. The source gives no workaround.
