SCA: security update for astro (GHSA-cq8c-xv66-36gw)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 431936

Description

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

- Astro is a web framework for content-driven websites. In versions 5.2.0 through 5.12.7, there is an Open
Redirect vulnerability in the trailing slash redirection logic when handling paths with double slashes.
This allows an attacker to redirect users to arbitrary external domains by crafting URLs such as
https://mydomain.com//malicious-site.com/. This increases the risk of phishing and other social
engineering attacks. This affects sites that use on-demand rendering (SSR) with the Node or Cloudflare
adapters. It does not affect static sites, or sites deployed to Netlify or Vercel. This issue is fixed in
version 5.12.8. To work around this issue at the network level, block outgoing redirect responses with a
Location header value that starts with `//`. (CVE-2025-54793)
