SCA: security update for @deepseek-ai/dsh-client-connection (GHSA-8m2g-8cgm-3vcp)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473825

Description

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

- DeepSeek Harness before 0.1.2-alpha.1 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability that grants
unauthenticated access to its local HTTP agent-control API by accepting a client-supplied loopback Host
header in place of validating the actual TCP connection origin. On the default configuration, a confined
tool-executed process can reach the loopback API without any port exposure and use it to escape its own OS
sandbox, escalate to unconfined execution, and disable the approval prompt. When the port is externally
reachable via tunnel, SSH forward, or reverse proxy, a remote attacker can exploit the same flaw to create
sessions, execute arbitrary commands, and exfiltrate stored conversation transcripts without credentials.
(CVE-2026-82533)

Solution

Update the @deepseek-ai/dsh-client-connection library and its related packages to version 0.1.2-alpha.1 or later.
