Chainguard: configurable-http-proxy: security update to 5.3.0-r4

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478113

Description

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

 - follow-redirects is a Node.js HTTP and HTTPS client wrapper that automatically follows redirects. From
 1.16.0 until 1.16.2, the documented sensitiveHeaders option is checked with value instanceof Array, so an
 array created in another JavaScript realm is replaced with an empty list even though Array.isArray
 recognizes it. When a request then follows an attacker-controlled cross-origin redirect, a custom
 credential header named in that discarded list can be forwarded to the redirect destination. This issue is
 fixed in version 1.16.2. (CVE-2026-116689)

Solution

Update the configurable-http-proxy library and its related packages to version 5.3.0-r4 or later.
