SCA: security update for litellm (GHSA-gppg-gqw8-wh9g)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 415233

Description

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

 - BerriAI/litellm version v1.35.8 contains a vulnerability where an attacker can achieve remote code
 execution. The vulnerability exists in the `add_deployment` function, which decodes and decrypts
 environment variables from base64 and assigns them to `os.environ`. An attacker can exploit this by
 sending a malicious payload to the `/config/update` endpoint, which is then processed and executed by the
 server when the `get_secret` function is triggered. This requires the server to use Google KMS and a
 database to store a model. (CVE-2024-5751)
