SCA: security update for org.apache.parquet:parquet-avro (GHSA-53wx-pr6q-m3j5)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 434706

Description

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

- Schema parsing in the parquet-avro module of Apache Parquet 1.15.0 and previous versions allows bad actors
to execute arbitrary code. While 1.15.1 introduced a fix to restrict untrusted packages, the default
setting of trusted packages still allows malicious classes from these packages to be executed. The exploit
is only applicable if the client code of parquet-avro uses the "specific" or the "reflect" models
deliberately for reading Parquet files. ("generic" model is not impacted) Users are recommended to upgrade
to 1.15.2 or set the system property "org.apache.parquet.avro.SERIALIZABLE_PACKAGES" to an empty string on
1.15.1. Both are sufficient to fix the issue. (CVE-2025-46762)
