SCA: security update for langchain-core (GHSA-c67j-w6g6-q2cm)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 436484

Description

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

 - LangChain is a framework for building agents and LLM-powered applications. Prior to versions 0.3.81 and
 1.2.5, a serialization injection vulnerability exists in LangChain's dumps() and dumpd() functions. The
 functions do not escape dictionaries with 'lc' keys when serializing free-form dictionaries. The 'lc' key
 is used internally by LangChain to mark serialized objects. When user-controlled data contains this key
 structure, it is treated as a legitimate LangChain object during deserialization rather than plain user
 data. This issue has been patched in versions 0.3.81 and 1.2.5. (CVE-2025-68664)
