SCA: security update for pepr (GHSA-w54x-r83c-x79q)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 436795

Description

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

 - Pepr is a type safe K8s middleware. Prior to 1.0.5 , Pepr defaults to a cluster-admin RBAC configuration
 and does not explicitly force or enforce least-privilege guidance for module authors. The default behavior
 exists to make the “getting started” experience smooth: new users can experiment with Pepr and create
 resources dynamically without needing to pre-configure RBAC. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.0.5.
