SCA: security update for sillytavern (GHSA-7cxj-w27x-x78q)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 435519

Description

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

- SillyTavern is a locally installed user interface that allows users to interact with text generation large
language models, image generation engines, and text-to-speech voice models. In versions prior to 1.13.4,
the web user interface for SillyTavern is susceptible to DNS rebinding, allowing attackers to perform
actions like install malicious extensions, read chats, inject arbitrary HTML for phishing attacks, etc.
The vulnerability has been patched in the version 1.13.4 by introducing a server configuration setting
that enables a validation of host names in inbound HTTP requests according to the provided list of allowed
hosts: `hostWhitelist.enabled` in config.yaml file or `SILLYTAVERN_HOSTWHITELIST_ENABLED` environment
variable. While the setting is disabled by default to honor a wide variety of existing user configurations
and maintain backwards compatibility, existing and new users are encouraged to review their server
configurations and apply necessary changes to their setup, especially if hosting over the local network
while not using SSL. (CVE-2025-59159)
