SCA: security update for strawberry-graphql (GHSA-vpwc-v33q-mq89)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 440029

Description

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

- Strawberry GraphQL is a library for creating GraphQL APIs. Strawberry up until version 0.312.3 is
vulnerable to an authentication bypass on WebSocket subscription endpoints. The legacy graphql-ws
subprotocol handler does not verify that a connection_init handshake has been completed before processing
start (subscription) messages. This allows a remote attacker to skip the on_ws_connect authentication hook
entirely by connecting with the graphql-ws subprotocol and sending a start message directly, without ever
sending connection_init. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.312.3. (CVE-2026-35523)

Solution

Update the strawberry-graphql library and its related packages to version 0.312.3 or later.
