SCA: security update for @nuxt/vite-builder (GHSA-3xf4-9g3c-4h4w)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478095

Description

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

 - Nuxt is an open-source web development framework for Vue.js. From 4.6.0 until 4.6.3, nuxt dev stores a
 generated appSecret in <buildDir>/app-secret, by default .nuxt/app-secret, within a directory allowed by
 Vite's server.fs configuration. A client with direct HTTP access to an exposed development server can
 fetch the file, use deriveSecret() to compute derived secrets such as the default useSession password, and
 forge session cookies accepted by that development server. The default localhost binding limits remote
 exposure, cross-origin browser reads are blocked, production builds and development servers with an
 explicitly configured appSecret are not affected. This issue is fixed in version 4.6.3. (CVE-2026-119201)

Solution

Update the @nuxt/vite-builder library and its related packages to version 4.6.3 or later.
