SCA: security update for probe-image-size (GHSA-gjj5-9665-rwrc)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 471917

Description

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

- probe-image-size gets image dimensions without downloading the entire file. Prior to 7.4.0,
lib/parse_sync/svg.js and lib/parse_stream/svg.js use the searching regular expression
/<[-_.:a-zA-Z0-9][^>]*>/, which repeatedly scans to the end of input when attacker-controlled data
contains many less-than characters without a closing greater-than character. The synchronous parser
converts and scans the full supplied buffer without an input cap, while the streaming parser reparses the
complete accumulated SVG prefix for every received chunk. The probe.sync(), probe(stream), and probe(url)
entry points can therefore block the Node.js event loop at full CPU, and attacker-controlled chunking can
amplify the streaming cost. This issue is fixed in version 7.4.0. (CVE-2026-104861)

Solution

Update the probe-image-size library and its related packages to version 7.4.0 or later.
