critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 435222

Description

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

 - @akoskm/create-mcp-server-stdio is an MCP server starter kit that uses the StdioServerTransport. Prior to
 version 0.0.13, the MCP Server is written in a way that is vulnerable to command injection vulnerability
 attacks as part of some of its MCP Server tool definition and implementation. The MCP Server exposes the
 tool `which-app-on-port` which relies on Node.js child process API `exec` which is an unsafe and
 vulnerable API if concatenated with untrusted user input. Version 0.0.13 contains a fix for the issue.
