CVE-2024-46990: Monospace Directus

Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 0.5% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Directus is a real-time API and App dashboard for managing SQL database content. When relying on blocking access to localhost using the default `0.0.0.0` filter a user may bypass this block by using other registered loopback devices (like `127.0.0.2` - `127.127.127.127`). This issue has been addressed in release versions 10.13.3 and 11.1.0. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may block this bypass by manually adding the `127.0.0.0/8` CIDR range which will block access to any `127.X.X.X` ip instead of just `127.0.0.1`.

Affected products

• Monospace Directus: before 10.13.3 (fixed in 10.13.3); from 11.0.0, before 11.1.0 (fixed in 11.1.0)
