SCA: security update for msgpackr (GHSA-7hpj-7hhx-2fgx)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 412092

Description

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

- msgpackr is a fast MessagePack NodeJS/JavaScript implementation. Prior to 1.10.1, when decoding user
supplied MessagePack messages, users can trigger stuck threads by crafting messages that keep the decoder
stuck in a loop. The fix is available in v1.10.1. Exploits seem to require structured cloning, replacing
the 0x70 extension with your own (that throws an error or does something other than recursive referencing)
should mitigate the issue. (CVE-2023-52079)
