SCA: security update for org.mozilla:rhino (GHSA-3w8q-xq97-5j7x)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 436199

Description

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

 - Rhino is an open-source implementation of JavaScript written entirely in Java. Prior to 1.8.1, 1.7.15.1,
 and 1.7.14.1, when an application passed an attacker controlled float poing number into the toFixed()
 function, it might lead to high CPU consumption and a potential Denial of Service. Small numbers go
 through this call stack: NativeNumber.numTo > DToA.JS_dtostr > DToA.JS_dtoa > DToA.pow5mult where pow5mult
 attempts to raise 5 to a ridiculous power. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.8.1, 1.7.15.1, and 1.7.14.1.
 (CVE-2025-66453)
