SCA: security update for budibase (GHSA-rvhr-26g4-p2r8)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 438091

Description

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

 - Budibase is a low code platform for creating internal tools, workflows, and admin panels. Prior to version
 3.30.4, an unsafe `eval()` vulnerability in Budibase's view filtering implementation allows any
 authenticated user (including free tier accounts) to execute arbitrary JavaScript code on the server. This
 vulnerability ONLY affects Budibase Cloud (SaaS) - self-hosted deployments use native CouchDB views and
 are not vulnerable. The vulnerability exists in `packages/server/src/db/inMemoryView.ts` where user-
 controlled view map functions are directly evaluated without sanitization. The primary impact comes from
 what lives inside the pod's environment: the `app-service` pod runs with secrets baked into its
 environment variables, including `INTERNAL_API_KEY`, `JWT_SECRET`, CouchDB admin credentials, AWS keys,
 and more. Using the extracted CouchDB credentials, we verified direct database access, enumerated all
 tenant databases, and confirmed that user records (email addresses) are readable. Version 3.30.4 contains
 a patch. (CVE-2026-27702)
