SCA: security update for axios (GHSA-m7pr-hjqh-92cm)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 441067

Description

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

 - Axios is a promise based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js. Prior to 1.15.1 and 0.31.1, he fix for
 no_proxy hostname normalization bypass is incomplete. When no_proxy=localhost is set, requests to
 127.0.0.1 and [::1] still route through the proxy instead of bypassing it. The shouldBypassProxy()
 function does pure string matching — it does not resolve IP aliases or loopback equivalents. This
 vulnerability is fixed in 1.15.1 and 0.31.1. (CVE-2026-42038)

Solution

Update the axios library and its related packages to version 0.31.1 or later.
