SCA: security update for github.com/stripe/smokescreen (GHSA-qwrf-gfpj-qvj6)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 418380

Description

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

- Smokescreen is an HTTP proxy. The primary use case for Smokescreen is to prevent server-side request
forgery (SSRF) attacks in which external attackers leverage the behavior of applications to connect to or
scan internal infrastructure. Smokescreen also offers an option to deny access to additional (e.g.,
external) URLs by way of a deny list. There was an issue in Smokescreen that made it possible to bypass
the deny list feature by surrounding the hostname with square brackets (e.g. `[example.com]`). This only
impacted the HTTP proxy functionality of Smokescreen. HTTPS requests were not impacted. Smokescreen
version 0.0.4 contains a patch for this issue. (CVE-2022-29188)
