critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438792
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- Apollo Federation is an architecture for declaratively composing APIs into a unified graph. Prior to
2.9.6, 2.10.5, 2.11.6, 2.12.3, and 2.13.2, a vulnerability exists in query plan execution within the
gateway that may allow pollution of Object.prototype in certain scenarios. A malicious client may be able
to pollute Object.prototype in gateway directly by crafting operations with field aliases and/or variable
names that target prototype-inheritable properties. Alternatively, if a subgraph were to be compromised by
a malicious actor, they may be able to pollute Object.prototype in gateway by crafting JSON response
payloads that target prototype-inheritable properties. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.9.6, 2.10.5,
2.11.6, 2.12.3, and 2.13.2. (CVE-2026-32621)
