SCA: security update for wagtail (GHSA-p4v8-rw59-93cq)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438216

Description

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

 - Wagtail is an open source content management system built on Django. Prior to versions 6.3.8, 7.0.6,
 7.2.3, and 7.3.1, a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists on confirmation messages within
 the wagtail.contrib.simple_translation module. A user with access to the Wagtail admin area may create a
 page with a specially-crafted title which, when another user performs the "Translate" action, causes
 arbitrary JavaScript code to run. This could lead to performing actions with that user's credentials. The
 vulnerability is not exploitable by an ordinary site visitor without access to the Wagtail admin. This
 issue has been patched in versions 6.3.8, 7.0.6, 7.2.3, and 7.3.1. (CVE-2026-28223)
