SCA: security update for @cap-js/db-service, @cap-js/postgres, @cap-js/sqlite (GHSA-pvw4-cvr4-97p8)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 442239

Description

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

 - The SAP Cloud Application Programming Model is a tool for building enterprise-grade cloud applications,
 and cap-js/cds-dbs is the monorepo for SQL database services for that tool. On April 29, 2026, compromised
 versions of `@cap-js/[email protected]`, `@cap-js/[email protected]`, and `@cap-js/[email protected]` were
 published. The malicious packages harvested credentials and attempted self-propagation. If a compromised
 version was installed, all credentials accessible on that machine (npm tokens, cloud provider credentials,
 SSH keys, GitHub PATs) should be considered compromised. User should upgrade to `@cap-js/sqlite` >= 2.4.0,
 `@cap-js/postgres` >= 2.3.0, `@cap-js/db-service` >= 2.11.0. If a compromised version was ever installed,
 rotate all affected credentials. No known workarounds are available. (CVE-2026-46421)

Solution

Update the @cap-js/db-service library and its related packages to version 2.11.0 or later.
