SCA: security update for messageformat (GHSA-xfqm-j7pc-xrfc)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 435432

Description

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

 - The messageformat package, an implementation of the Unicode MessageFormat 2 specification for JavaScript,
 is vulnerable to prototype pollution due to improper handling of message key paths in versions prior to
 2.3.0. The flaw arises when processing nested message keys containing special characters (e.g., __proto__
 ), which can lead to unintended modification of the JavaScript Object prototype. This vulnerability may
 allow a remote attacker to inject properties into the global object prototype via specially crafted
 message input, potentially causing denial of service or other undefined behaviors in applications using
 the affected component. (CVE-2025-57349)
