SCA: security update for translate (GHSA-882j-4vj5-7vmj)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 412526

Description

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

 - Translate is a package that allows users to convert text to different languages on Node.js and the
 browser. Prior to version 3.0.0, an attacker controlling the second variable of the `translate` function
 is able to perform a cache poisoning attack. They can change the outcome of translation requests made by
 subsequent users. The `opt.id` parameter allows the overwriting of the cache key. If an attacker sets the
 `id` variable to the cache key that would be generated by another user, they can choose the response that
 user gets served. Version 3.0.0 fixes this issue. (CVE-2024-29042)
