SCA: security update for @appium/support (GHSA-rfx7-4xw3-gh4m)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438618

Description

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

 - Appium is an automation framework that provides WebDriver-based automation possibilities for a wide range
 platforms. Prior to 7.0.6, @appium/support contains a ZIP extraction implementation (extractAllTo() via
 ZipExtractor.extract()) with a path traversal (Zip Slip) check that is non-functional. The check at line
 88 of packages/support/lib/zip.js creates an Error object but never throws it, allowing malicious ZIP
 entries with ../ path components to write files outside the intended destination directory. This affects
 all JS-based extractions (the default code path), not only those using the fileNamesEncoding option. This
 vulnerability is fixed in 7.0.6. (CVE-2026-30973)

Solution

Update the @appium/support library and its related packages to version 7.0.6 or later.
