high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 410336

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - get-func-name is a module to retrieve a function's name securely and consistently both in NodeJS and the
 browser. Versions prior to 2.0.1 are subject to a regular expression denial of service (redos)
 vulnerability which may lead to a denial of service when parsing malicious input. This vulnerability can
 be exploited when there is an imbalance in parentheses, which results in excessive backtracking and
 subsequently increases the CPU load and processing time significantly. This vulnerability can be triggered
 using the following input: '\t'.repeat(54773) + '\t/function/i'. This issue has been addressed in commit
 `f934b228b` which has been included in releases from 2.0.1. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no
 known workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2023-43646)
