SCA: security update for github.com/t2bot/matrix-media-repo (GHSA-gp86-q8hg-fpxj)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 415224

Description

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

 - Matrix Media Repo (MMR) is a highly configurable multi-homeserver media repository for Matrix. MMR makes
 requests to other servers as part of normal operation, and these resource owners can return large amounts
 of JSON back to MMR for parsing. In parsing, MMR can consume large amounts of memory and exhaust available
 memory. This is fixed in MMR v1.3.8. Users are advised to upgrade. For users unable to upgrade; forward
 proxies can be configured to block requests to unsafe hosts. Alternatively, MMR processes can be
 configured with memory limits and auto-restart. Running multiple MMR processes concurrently can help
 ensure a restart does not overly impact users. (CVE-2024-52791)
