SCA: security update for @hapi/content, content (GHSA-8494-f6mr-cjpv)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478050

Description

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

 - @hapi/content provides HTTP Content-* header parsing. From 3.0.6 until 6.0.3, Content.disposition() uses
 an unanchored parameter-name expression in a global regular-expression scan, causing repeated failed
 matching over the remaining input when a Content-Disposition parameter contains a long token without an
 equals sign. The resulting quadratic processing can block the Node.js event loop before route handlers or
 validation when @hapi/pez parses multipart/form-data headers, including unauthenticated hapi routes with
 payload.multipart enabled, and also affects applications that pass untrusted headers directly to
 Content.disposition(). This issue is fixed in @hapi/content version 6.0.3. (CVE-2026-119202)

Solution

Update the @hapi/content library and its related packages to version 6.0.3 or later.
