SCA: security update for aim (GHSA-4qcx-jx49-6qrh)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 477515

Description

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

 - A vulnerability in the `LockManager.release_locks` function in aimhubio/aim (commit bb76afe) allows for
 arbitrary file deletion through relative path traversal. The `run_hash` parameter, which is user-
 controllable, is concatenated without normalization as part of a path used to specify file deletion. This
 vulnerability is exposed through the `Repo._close_run()` method, which is accessible via the tracking
 server instruction API. As a result, an attacker can exploit this to delete any arbitrary file on the
 machine running the tracking server. (CVE-2024-8769)
