Echo: postcss: security update to 8.5.18

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 463932

Description

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

- PostCSS takes a CSS file and provides an API to analyze and modify its rules by transforming the rules
into an Abstract Syntax Tree. Prior to 8.5.18, lib/previous-map.js loadMap() passes attacker-controlled
sourceMappingURL values to join(dirname(opts.from), annotation), and loadFile() permits traversed or
absolute .map paths, allowing untrusted CSS processed without map: false to disclose sourcesContent from
arbitrary reachable .map files through result.map. This issue is fixed in version 8.5.18. (CVE-2026-73646)

Solution

Update the postcss library and its related packages to version 8.5.18 or later.
