Background
Fuseki is an npm package that provides a SPARQL server and triple store. It allows users to query and manipulate RDF data. The package is commonly used in applications that require RDF data storage and retrieval. However, versions of fuseki prior to 1.0.1 are vulnerable to an insecure download of resources over an unencrypted HTTP connection.
