SCA: security update for fast-uri (GHSA-wjr9-j795-jxcr)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 477239

Description

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

 - fast-uri is a dependency-free RFC 3986 URI parser and serializer for Node.js. In versions from 2.4.2
 through 2.4.7, from 3.1.3 through 3.1.8, and from 4.0.1 through 4.2.2, for HTTP-family schemes the
 canonicalizeHost() function passes the parsed host to the WHATWG URL parser and adopts its hostname
 without checking that the parser consumed the entire input as a host, so the authority can be silently
 rewritten: data before an at-sign is dropped and tab, carriage-return, and line-feed characters are
 stripped, with no error reported. An application that enforces host-based policy such as denylists,
 loopback filtering, redirect validation, or outbound proxy routing on one representation can then see the
 canonical host diverge from what it checked, allowing traffic to be steered to an unintended destination.
 The issue is fixed in fast-uri 2.4.8, 3.1.9, and 4.2.3, and users should upgrade to one of these versions
 or later. As a workaround, reject an authority that contains more than one at-sign or any tab, carriage-
 return, or line-feed before calling fast-uri, or treat any non-empty parse error as fatal and compare
 hosts only from the same parse result. (CVE-2026-110180)

Solution

Update the fast-uri library and its related packages to version 2.4.8 or later.
