SCA: security update for guzzlehttp/guzzle (GHSA-cwmx-hcrq-mhc3)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 414144

Description

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

- Guzzle is a PHP HTTP client. Guzzle prior to versions 6.5.6 and 7.4.3 contains a vulnerability with the
cookie middleware. The vulnerability is that it is not checked if the cookie domain equals the domain of
the server which sets the cookie via the Set-Cookie header, allowing a malicious server to set cookies for
unrelated domains. The cookie middleware is disabled by default, so most library consumers will not be
affected by this issue. Only those who manually add the cookie middleware to the handler stack or
construct the client with ['cookies' => true] are affected. Moreover, those who do not use the same Guzzle
client to call multiple domains and have disabled redirect forwarding are not affected by this
vulnerability. Guzzle versions 6.5.6 and 7.4.3 contain a patch for this issue. As a workaround, turn off
the cookie middleware. (CVE-2022-29248)
