SCA: security update for langchain, langchain-community (GHSA-3hjh-jh2h-vrg6)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 421382

Description

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

 - A Denial-of-Service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the `SitemapLoader` class of the `langchain-
 ai/langchain` repository, affecting all versions. The `parse_sitemap` method, responsible for parsing
 sitemaps and extracting URLs, lacks a mechanism to prevent infinite recursion when a sitemap URL refers to
 the current sitemap itself. This oversight allows for the possibility of an infinite loop, leading to a
 crash by exceeding the maximum recursion depth in Python. This vulnerability can be exploited to occupy
 server socket/port resources and crash the Python process, impacting the availability of services relying
 on this functionality. (CVE-2024-2965)
