SCA: security update for org.dspace:dspace-api (GHSA-v66x-68f2-pxf5)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 444538

Description

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

 - DSpace open source software is a repository application which provides durable access to digital
 resources. Prior to versions 7.6.7, 8.4, 9.3, and 10.0, the Curation Task feature allows an output path to
 be used by the reporter (-r parameter), typically used to stream results and status of curation task
 operations. It is not restricted to any particular base path, meaning that any path writable by the DSpace
 (often 'tomcat') user is allowed. This constitutes a Path Traversal Vulnerability in the curate script.
 This issue has been patched in versions 7.6.7, 8.4, 9.3, and 10.0. (CVE-2026-49831)

Solution

Update the org.dspace:dspace-api library and its related packages to version 10.0 or later.
