SCA: security update for picklescan (GHSA-7q5r-7gvp-wc82)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 421083

Description

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

 - picklescan before 0.0.23 is vulnerable to a ZIP archive manipulation attack that causes it to crash when
 attempting to extract and scan PyTorch model archives. By modifying the filename in the ZIP header while
 keeping the original filename in the directory listing, an attacker can make PickleScan raise a BadZipFile
 error. However, PyTorch's more forgiving ZIP implementation still allows the model to be loaded, enabling
 malicious payloads to bypass detection. (CVE-2025-1944)
