Lead Critical issue (CVSS 9.3): * CVE-2026-77987 — notebook viewer SSRF: scheme/host were validated but an explicit port was not, so an attacker with network access could reach co-located internal services.

Unauthenticated when private mode is disabled; any authenticated user when private mode is enabled. Also in the same release: High stored XSS via crafted Markdown HTML attribute injection (CVE-2026-77912), plus additional Packages upload-auth and stafftools token hardening. Fixed in: 3.22.1, 3.21.6, 3.20.8, 3.19.12, 3.18.15, 3.17.21.
