SCA: security update for matrix-js-sdk (GHSA-rfv9-x7hh-xc32)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 418712

Description

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

 - matrix-js-sdk is a Matrix messaging protocol Client-Server SDK for JavaScript. In versions prior to 19.4.0
 events sent with special strings in key places can temporarily disrupt or impede the matrix-js-sdk from
 functioning properly, potentially impacting the consumer's ability to process data safely. Note that the
 matrix-js-sdk can appear to be operating normally but be excluding or corrupting runtime data presented to
 the consumer. This issue has been fixed in matrix-js-sdk 19.4.0 and users are advised to upgrade. Users
 unable to upgrade may mitigate this issue by redacting applicable events, waiting for the sync processor
 to store data, and restarting the client. Alternatively, redacting the applicable events and clearing all
 storage will often fix most perceived issues. In some cases, no workarounds are possible. (CVE-2022-36059)
