SCA: security update for github.com/julien040/anyquery (GHSA-j9rx-rppg-6hh4)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443038

Description

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

- Anyquery is an SQL query engine built on top of SQLite. Prior to 0.4.5, the clear_plugin_cache(plugin) SQL
scalar function in namespace/other_functions.go passes the caller-controlled plugin parameter through
path.Join to os.RemoveAll without rejecting traversal segments. A low-privileged bearer-token holder can
invoke the function through the /v1/query HTTP endpoint, causing path.Join to resolve .. segments outside
$XDG_CACHE_HOME/anyquery/plugins/ and os.RemoveAll to recursively delete any reachable directory writable
by the Anyquery server process. This causes permanent data loss and denial of service without disclosing
file contents. This issue is fixed in version 0.4.5. (CVE-2026-47253)

Solution

Update the github.com/julien040/anyquery library and its related packages to version 0.4.5 or later.
