SCA: security update for tarteaucitronjs (GHSA-q43x-79jr-cq98)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 428283

Description

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

 - tarteaucitron.js is a compliant and accessible cookie banner. Prior to version 1.22.0, a vulnerability was
 identified in tarteaucitron.js where document.currentScript was accessed without verifying that it
 referenced an actual <script> element. If an attacker injected an HTML element, it could clobber the
 document.currentScript property. This causes the script to resolve incorrectly to an element instead of
 the <script> tag, leading to unexpected behavior or failure to load the script path correctly. This issue
 arises because in some browser environments, named DOM elements become properties on the global document
 object. An attacker with control over the HTML could exploit this to change the CDN domain of
 tarteaucitron. This issue has been patched in version 1.22.0. (CVE-2025-48939)
