SCA: security update for bbot (GHSA-m54h-vhf9-3w3m)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443517

Description

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

- The postman_download module uses the workspace name field from the Postman API to construct the local
directory path without sanitization. If a malicious workspace has a name containing path traversal
characters, pathlib resolves the path outside the intended output directory, allowing an attacker to write
arbitrary files to the user's system. (CVE-2026-12568)

Solution

Update the bbot library and its related packages to version 2.8.6 or later.
