SCA: security update for @octokit/endpoint (GHSA-x4c5-c7rf-jjgv)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 420902

Description

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

 - @octokit/endpoint turns REST API endpoints into generic request options. Starting in version 4.1.0 and
 prior to version 10.1.3, by crafting specific `options` parameters, the `endpoint.parse(options)` call can
 be triggered, leading to a regular expression denial-of-service (ReDoS) attack. This causes the program to
 hang and results in high CPU utilization. The issue occurs in the `parse` function within the `parse.ts`
 file of the npm package `@octokit/endpoint`. Version 10.1.3 contains a patch for the issue.
 (CVE-2025-25285)
