Details

The Contextual Links module doesn't sufficiently validate the requested contextual links. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "access contextual links".

Is GHSA-7v68-3pr5-h3cr in any of your client repos?

Checking one package by hand is fine. Checking it across forty client projects is not. NPMscan reads the lockfiles in every GitHub repo you pick, finds each project with an affected drupal/core, and gives you the command that fixes it.
