SCA: security update for solidus_core (GHSA-qxmr-qxh6-2cc9)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 418409

Description

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

 - Solidus is a free, open-source ecommerce platform built on Rails. Versions of Solidus prior to 3.1.4,
 3.0.4, and 2.11.13 have a denial of service vulnerability that could be exploited during a guest checkout.
 The regular expression used to validate a guest order's email was subject to exponential backtracking
 through a fragment like `a.a.` Versions 3.1.4, 3.0.4, and 2.11.13 have been patched to use a different
 regular expression. The maintainers added a check for email addresses that are no longer valid that will
 print information about any affected orders that exist. If a prompt upgrade is not an option, a workaround
 is available. It is possible to edit the file `config/application.rb` manually (with code provided by the
 maintainers in the GitHub Security Advisory) to check email validity. (CVE-2021-43805)
