SCA: security update for org.openrefine:openrefine (GHSA-79jv-5226-783f)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 411968

Description

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

 - OpenRefine is a free, open source tool for working with messy data. Prior to version 3.8.3, the `export-
 rows` command can be used in such a way that it reflects part of the request verbatim, with a Content-Type
 header also taken from the request. An attacker could lead a user to a malicious page that submits a form
 POST that contains embedded JavaScript code. This code would then be included in the response, along with
 an attacker-controlled `Content-Type` header, and so potentially executed in the victim's browser as if it
 was part of OpenRefine. The attacker-provided code can do anything the user can do, including deleting
 projects, retrieving database passwords, or executing arbitrary Jython or Closure expressions, if those
 extensions are also present. The attacker must know a valid project ID of a project that contains at least
 one row. Version 3.8.3 fixes the issue. (CVE-2024-47880)
