SCA: security update for copier (GHSA-hgjq-p8cr-gg4h)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 439616

Description

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

 - Copier is a library and CLI app for rendering project templates. Prior to version 9.14.1, Copier's
 _external_data feature allows a template to load YAML files using template-controlled paths. If untrusted
 templates are in scope, a malicious template can read attacker-chosen YAML-parseable local files that are
 accessible to the user running Copier and expose their contents in rendered output. This issue has been
 patched in version 9.14.1. (CVE-2026-34730)

Solution

Update the copier library and its related packages to version 9.14.1 or later.
