SCA: security update for carrierwave (GHSA-cf3w-g86h-35x4)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 413838

Description

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

 - CarrierWave is an open-source RubyGem which provides a simple and flexible way to upload files from Ruby
 applications. In CarrierWave before versions 1.3.2 and 2.1.1, there is a code injection vulnerability. The
 "#manipulate!" method inappropriately evals the content of mutation option(:read/:write), allowing
 attackers to craft a string that can be executed as a Ruby code. If an application developer supplies
 untrusted inputs to the option, it will lead to remote code execution(RCE). This is fixed in versions
 1.3.2 and 2.1.1. (CVE-2021-21305)
