SCA: security update for neos/form (GHSA-m5vx-8chx-qvmm)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 416762

Description

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

 - neos/forms is an open source framework to build web forms. By crafting a special `GET` request containing
 a valid form state, a form can be submitted without invoking any validators. Form state is secured with an
 HMAC that is still verified. That means that this issue can only be exploited if Form Finishers cause side
 effects even if no form values have been sent. Form Finishers can be adjusted in a way that they only
 execute an action if the submitted form contains some expected data. Alternatively a custom Finisher can
 be added as first finisher. This regression was introduced with
 https://github.com/neos/form/commit/049d415295be8d4a0478ccba97dba1bb81649567 (CVE-2021-32697)
