SCA: security update for Microsoft.Identity.Client (GHSA-x674-v45j-fwxw)

low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 420328

Description

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

 - The MSAL library enabled acquisition of security tokens to call protected APIs. MSAL.NET applications
 targeting Xamarin Android and .NET Android (e.g., MAUI) using the library from versions 4.48.0 to 4.60.0
 are impacted by a low severity vulnerability. A malicious application running on a customer Android device
 can cause local denial of service against applications that were built using MSAL.NET for authentication
 on the same device (i.e., prevent the user of the legitimate application from logging in) due to incorrect
 activity export configuration. MSAL.NET version 4.60.1 includes the fix. As a workaround, a developer may
 explicitly mark the MSAL.NET activity non-exported. (CVE-2024-27086)
