SCA: security update for eslint (GHSA-p5wg-g6qr-c7cg)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 437388

Description

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

 - Stack overflow vulnerability in eslint before 9.26.0 when serializing objects with circular references in
 eslint/lib/shared/serialization.js. The exploit is triggered via the RuleTester.run() method, which
 validates test cases and checks for duplicates. During validation, the internal function
 checkDuplicateTestCase() is called, which in turn uses the isSerializable() function for serialization
 checks. When a circular reference object is passed in, isSerializable() enters infinite recursion,
 ultimately causing a stack overflow. (CVE-2025-50537)
