SCA: security update for io.jstach:jstachio (GHSA-gwxv-jv83-6qjr)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 415362

Description

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

- JStachio is a type-safe Java Mustache templating engine. Prior to version 1.0.1, JStachio fails to escape
single quotes `'` in HTML, allowing an attacker to inject malicious code. This vulnerability can be
exploited by an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of other users visiting pages
that use this template engine. This can lead to various consequences, including session hijacking,
defacement of web pages, theft of sensitive information, or even the propagation of malware. Version 1.0.1
contains a patch for this issue. To mitigate this vulnerability, the template engine should properly
escape special characters, including single quotes. Common practice is to escape `'` as `&#39`. As a
workaround, users can avoid this issue by using only double quotes `"` for HTML attributes.
