SCA: security update for @nestjs/devtools-integration (GHSA-85cg-cmq5-qjm7)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 428714

Description

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

 - Nest is a framework for building scalable Node.js server-side applications. In versions 0.2.0 and below, a
 critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability was discovered in the @nestjs/devtools-integration
 package. When enabled, the package exposes a local development HTTP server with an API endpoint that uses
 an unsafe JavaScript sandbox (safe-eval-like implementation). Due to improper sandboxing and missing
 cross-origin protections, any malicious website visited by a developer can execute arbitrary code on their
 local machine. The package adds HTTP endpoints to a locally running NestJS development server. One of
 these endpoints, /inspector/graph/interact, accepts JSON input containing a code field and executes the
 provided code in a Node.js vm.runInNewContext sandbox. This is fixed in version 0.2.1. (CVE-2025-54782)
