SCA: security update for codeigniter4/framework (GHSA-x5mq-jjr3-vmx6)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 420312

Description

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

- CodeIgniter is a PHP full-stack web framework. Prior to 4.5.8, CodeIgniter lacked proper header validation
for its name and value. The potential attacker can construct deliberately malformed headers with Header
class. This could disrupt application functionality, potentially causing errors or generating invalid HTTP
requests. In some cases, these malformed requests might lead to a DoS scenario if a remote service’s web
application firewall interprets them as malicious and blocks further communication with the application.
This vulnerability is fixed in 4.5.8. (CVE-2025-24013)
