SCA: security update for github.com/Tencent/WeKnora (GHSA-r55h-3rwj-hcmg)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438508

Description

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

- WeKnora is an LLM-powered framework designed for deep document understanding and semantic retrieval. From
version 0.2.5 to before version 0.2.10, an unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability
exists in the MCP stdio configuration validation. The application allows unrestricted user registration,
meaning any attacker can create an account and exploit the command injection flaw. Despite implementing a
whitelist for allowed commands (npx, uvx) and blacklists for dangerous arguments and environment
variables, the validation can be bypassed using the -p flag with npx node. This allows any attacker to
execute arbitrary commands with the application's privileges, leading to complete system compromise. This
issue has been patched in version 0.2.10. (CVE-2026-30861)

Solution

Update the github.com/Tencent/WeKnora library and its related packages to version 0.2.10 or later.
