SCA: security update for @anthropic-ai/claude-code (GHSA-mmgp-wc2j-qcv7)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 439005

Description

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

 - Claude Code is an agentic coding tool. Versions prior to 2.1.53 resolved the permission mode from settings
 files, including the repo-controlled .claude/settings.json, before determining whether to display the
 workspace trust confirmation dialog. A malicious repository could set permissions.defaultMode to
 bypassPermissions in its committed .claude/settings.json, causing the trust dialog to be silently skipped
 on first open. This allowed a user to be placed into a permissive mode without seeing the trust
 confirmation prompt, making it easier for an attacker-controlled repository to gain tool execution without
 explicit user consent. This issue has been patched in version 2.1.53. (CVE-2026-33068)

Solution

Update the @anthropic-ai/claude-code library and its related packages to version 2.1.53 or later.
