SCA: security update for activestorage (GHSA-73f9-jhhh-hr5m)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 439110

Description

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

- Active Storage allows users to attach cloud and local files in Rails applications. Prior to versions
8.1.2.1, 8.0.4.1, and 7.2.3.1, Active Storage's `DiskService#delete_prefixed` passes blob keys directly to
`Dir.glob` without escaping glob metacharacters. If a blob key contains attacker-controlled input or
custom-generated keys with glob metacharacters, it may be possible to delete unintended files from the
storage directory. Versions 8.1.2.1, 8.0.4.1, and 7.2.3.1 contain a patch. (CVE-2026-33202)

Solution

Update the activestorage library and its related packages to version 7.2.3.1 or later.
