high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 420770

Description

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

 - The HL7 FHIR IG publisher is a tool to take a set of inputs and create a standard FHIR IG. Prior to
 version 1.7.4, XSLT transforms performed by various components are vulnerable to XML external entity
 injections. A processed XML file with a malicious DTD tag `( ]>` could produce XML containing data from
 the host system. This impacts use cases where org.hl7.fhir.publisher is being used to within a host where
 external clients can submit XML. A previous release provided an incomplete solution revealed by new
 testing. This issue has been patched as of version 1.7.4. No known workarounds are available.
