SCA: security update for torchserve (GHSA-wxcx-gg9c-fwp2)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 420181

Description

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

 - TorchServe is a flexible and easy-to-use tool for serving and scaling PyTorch models in production.
 TorchServe 's check on allowed_urls configuration can be by-passed if the URL contains characters such as
 ".." but it does not prevent the model from being downloaded into the model store. Once a file is
 downloaded, it can be referenced without providing a URL the second time, which effectively bypasses the
 allowed_urls security check. Customers using PyTorch inference Deep Learning Containers (DLC) through
 Amazon SageMaker and EKS are not affected. This issue in TorchServe has been fixed by validating the URL
 without characters such as ".." before downloading see PR #3082. TorchServe release 0.11.0 includes the
 fix to address this vulnerability. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this
 vulnerability. (CVE-2024-35198)
