SCA: security update for @zenuml/core (GHSA-q6xv-jm4v-349h)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 417944

Description

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

 - ZenUML is JavaScript-based diagramming tool that requires no server, using Markdown-inspired text
 definitions and a renderer to create and modify sequence diagrams. Markdown-based comments in the ZenUML
 diagram syntax are susceptible to Cross-site Scripting (XSS). The comment feature allows the user to
 attach small notes for reference. This feature allows the user to enter in their comment in markdown
 comment, allowing them to use common markdown features, such as `**` for bolded text. However, the
 markdown text is currently not sanitized before rendering, allowing an attacker to enter a malicious
 payload for the comment which leads to XSS. This puts existing applications that use ZenUML unsandboxed at
 risk of arbitrary JavaScript execution when rendering user-controlled diagrams. This vulnerability was
 patched in version 3.23.25, (CVE-2024-38527)
