SCA: security update for Starlette (GHSA-jp82-jpqv-5vv3)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 443236

Description

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

 - Starlette is a lightweight ASGI framework/toolkit. Prior to 1.3.0, the HTTP request path is not validated
 before being used to reconstruct request.url. Because request.url is rebuilt by concatenating
 {scheme}://{host}{path} and re-parsing the result, a path that does not begin with / (for example
 @google.com) moves the authority boundary during re-parsing, so request.url.hostname and
 request.url.netloc become attacker-controlled. Code that reads request.url.hostname (rather than the Host
 header or scope) can therefore be misled into trusting an attacker-supplied host. This vulnerability is
 fixed in 1.3.0. (CVE-2026-54282)

Solution

Update the Starlette library and its related packages to version 1.3.0 or later.
