SCA: security update for dompurify (GHSA-v8jm-5vwx-cfxm)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438385

Description

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

 - DOMPurify 3.1.3 through 3.2.6 and 2.5.3 through 2.5.8 contain a cross-site scripting vulnerability that
 allows attackers to bypass attribute sanitization by exploiting missing textarea rawtext element
 validation in the SAFE_FOR_XML regex. Attackers can include closing rawtext tags like </textarea> in
 attribute values to break out of rawtext contexts and execute JavaScript when sanitized output is placed
 inside rawtext elements. The 3.x branch was fixed in 3.2.7; the 2.x branch was never patched.
 (CVE-2025-15599)
