SCA: security update for vantage6 (GHSA-fgmc-2hqj-86v4)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 443395

Description

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

- vantage6 is an open-source infrastructure for privacy preserving analysis. Versions prior to 5.0.0 provide
an initial user with username `root` and password `root`. This is not ideal because attackers know that
almost all vantage6 servers have a user with username `root` that probably has admin rights, and the
initial password is very weak and it is possible that administrators forget to reset it. Version 5.0.0
fixes the issue. As a workaround, it is possible to delete the `root` user after it has been used to
create other users. (CVE-2026-54445)

Solution

Update the vantage6 library and its related packages to version 5.0.0 or later.
