SCA: security update for MessagePack (GHSA-2f33-pr97-265q)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443929

Description

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

- MessagePack for C# is a MessagePack serializer for C#. Prior to 2.5.301 and 3.1.7, the parameterless
MessagePackInputFormatter() constructor uses default serializer options, which resolve to
MessagePackSerializerOptions.Standard with MessagePackSecurity.TrustedData. The formatter is designed for
ASP.NET Core MVC request bodies, which commonly cross an HTTP trust boundary. This insecure default can
expose applications to denial-of-service attacks that MessagePackSecurity.UntrustedData is intended to
mitigate, such as hash-collision attacks against dictionary-like model properties. This vulnerability is
fixed in 2.5.301 and 3.1.7. (CVE-2026-48509)

Solution

Update the MessagePack library and its related packages to version 2.5.301 or later.
