SCA: security update for bentoml (GHSA-m6w7-qv66-g3mf)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438356

Description

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

- BentoML is a Python library for building online serving systems optimized for AI apps and model inference.
Prior to 1.4.36, the safe_extract_tarfile() function validates that each tar member's path is within the
destination directory, but for symlink members it only validates the symlink's own path, not the symlink's
target. An attacker can create a malicious bento/model tar file containing a symlink pointing outside the
extraction directory, followed by a regular file that writes through the symlink, achieving arbitrary file
write on the host filesystem. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.4.36. (CVE-2026-27905)
