SCA: security update for concurrent-ruby (GHSA-wv3x-4vxv-whpp)

low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443621

Description

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

 - concurrent-ruby is a modern concurrency tools for Ruby. Prior to 1.3.7, Concurrent::ReentrantReadWriteLock
 can incorrectly grant a write lock after one thread acquires the read lock 32,768 times. The lock stores a
 thread's local read and write hold counts in one integer. The low 15 bits are used for the read hold
 count, and bit 15 is used as WRITE_LOCK_HELD. After 32,768 reentrant read acquisitions, the local read
 count crosses into the write-lock bit. try_write_lock then treats the thread as already holding a write
 lock and returns true without setting the global RUNNING_WRITER bit. This breaks the core mutual-exclusion
 guarantee: the caller is told it has a write lock, but other threads can still hold or acquire read locks
 at the same time. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.3.7. (CVE-2026-54905)

Solution

Update the concurrent-ruby library and its related packages to version 1.3.7 or later.
