SCA: security update for pydash (GHSA-8mjr-6c96-39w8)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 412760

Description

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

- This affects versions of the package pydash before 6.0.0. A number of pydash methods such as
pydash.objects.invoke() and pydash.collections.invoke_map() accept dotted paths (Deep Path Strings) to
target a nested Python object, relative to the original source object. These paths can be used to target
internal class attributes and dict items, to retrieve, modify or invoke nested Python objects. **Note:**
The pydash.objects.invoke() method is vulnerable to Command Injection when the following prerequisites are
satisfied: 1) The source object (argument 1) is not a built-in object such as list/dict (otherwise, the
__init__.__globals__ path is not accessible) 2) The attacker has control over argument 2 (the path string)
and argument 3 (the argument to pass to the invoked method) The pydash.collections.invoke_map() method is
also vulnerable, but is harder to exploit as the attacker does not have direct control over the argument
to be passed to the invoked function. (CVE-2023-26145)
