SCA: security update for com.alipay.sofa:hessian (GHSA-c459-2m73-67hj)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 413635

Description

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

 - sofa-hessian is an internal improved version of Hessian3/4 powered by Ant Group CO., Ltd. The SOFA Hessian
 protocol uses a blacklist mechanism to restrict deserialization of potentially dangerous classes for
 security protection. But there is a gadget chain that can bypass the SOFA Hessian blacklist protection
 mechanism, and this gadget chain only relies on JDK and does not rely on any third-party components. This
 issue is fixed by an update to the blacklist, users can upgrade to sofahessian version 3.5.5 to avoid this
 issue. Users unable to upgrade may maintain a blacklist themselves in the directory
 `external/serialize.blacklist`. (CVE-2024-46983)
