SCA: security update for io.swagger:swagger-codegen (GHSA-hpv8-9rq5-hq7w)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 415878

Description

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

 - swagger-codegen is an open-source project which contains a template-driven engine to generate
 documentation, API clients and server stubs in different languages by parsing your OpenAPI / Swagger
 definition. In swagger-codegen before version 2.4.19, on Unix-Like systems, the system temporary directory
 is shared between all local users. When files/directories are created, the default `umask` settings for
 the process are respected. As a result, by default, most processes/apis will create files/directories with
 the permissions `-rw-r--r--` and `drwxr-xr-x` respectively, unless an API that explicitly sets safe file
 permissions is used. Because this vulnerability impacts generated code, the generated code will remain
 vulnerable until fixed manually! This vulnerability is fixed in version 2.4.19. Note this is a distinct
 vulnerability from CVE-2021-21363. (CVE-2021-21364)
