SCA: security update for signalk-server (GHSA-7rqc-ff8m-7j23)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 436545

Description

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

 - Signal K Server is a server application that runs on a central hub in a boat. A Denial of Service (DoS)
 vulnerability in versions prior to 2.19.0 allows an unauthenticated attacker to crash the SignalK Server
 by flooding the access request endpoint (`/signalk/v1/access/requests`). This causes a "JavaScript heap
 out of memory" error due to unbounded in-memory storage of request objects. Version 2.19.0 fixes the
 issue. (CVE-2025-68272)

Solution

Update the signalk-server library and its related packages to version 2.19.0 or later.
