SCA: security update for kimai/kimai (GHSA-jg2j-2w24-54cg)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 436851

Description

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

- Kimai is a web-based multi-user time-tracking application. Prior to version 2.46.0, Kimai's export
functionality uses a Twig sandbox with an overly permissive security policy (`DefaultPolicy`) that allows
arbitrary method calls on objects available in the template context. An authenticated user with export
permissions can deploy a malicious Twig template that extracts sensitive information including environment
variables, all user password hashes, serialized session tokens, and CSRF tokens. Version 2.46.0 patches
this issue. (CVE-2026-23626)
