SCA: security update for manifest (GHSA-h8h6-7752-g28c)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 421024

Description

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

- Manifest offers users a one-file micro back end. Prior to version 4.9.2, Manifest employs a weak password
hashing implementation that uses SHA3 without a salt. This exposes user passwords to a higher risk of
being cracked if an attacker gains access to the database. Without the use of a salt, identical passwords
across multiple users will result in the same hash, making it easier for attackers to identify and exploit
patterns, thereby accelerating the cracking process. Version 4.9.2 fixes the issue. (CVE-2025-27408)
