SCA: security update for com.alibaba:fastjson (GHSA-jm7w-5684-pvh8)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 472851

Description

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

 - Fastjson before 1.2.48 mishandles autoType because, when an @type key is in a JSON document, and the value
 of that key is the name of a Java class, there may be calls to certain public methods of that class.
 Depending on the behavior of those methods, there may be JNDI injection with an attacker-supplied payload
 located elsewhere in that JSON document. This was exploited in the wild in 2023 through 2025. NOTE: this
 issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-18349. Also, a later bypass is covered by
 CVE-2022-25845. (CVE-2025-70974)

Solution

Update the com.alibaba:fastjson library and its related packages to version 1.2.48 or later.
