Echo: axios: security update to 0.33.0

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 464826

Description

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

- axios is vulnerable to read-side prototype-pollution gadgets that can alter request construction when
Object.prototype has already been polluted by a separate vulnerability or dependency. In the bodyless
method aliases (axios.get(), axios.delete(), axios.head(), axios.options()), inherited data is read via
(config || {}).data before config normalization, causing an attacker-controlled body to be sent on
requests that did not set one. Additional low-level paths, only reachable when calling exported
adapters/helpers (e.g. lib/adapters/http.js, unsafe/helpers/resolveConfig.js) directly with plain configs
and no own proxy or paramsSerializer, can inherit polluted proxy values (routing requests through an
attacker-controlled proxy) or paramsSerializer values (attacker-controlled URL serialization). These low-
level gadgets do not reproduce through normal high-level axios calls on 1.15.2+. The issue is fixed in
axios 1.18.0 and 0.33.0. (CVE-2026-67316)

Solution

Update the axios library and its related packages to version 0.33.0 or later.
