SCA: security update for github.com/eat-pray-ai/yutu (GHSA-2c7f-fxww-6w6c)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 444723

Description

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

 - yutu is an AI-powered toolkit for managing and growing YouTube channels. Prior to 0.10.9, the caption-
 download MCP tool accepts a caller-controlled file parameter through cmd/caption/download.go and passes it
 to Caption.Download() in pkg/caption/caption.go, where os.Create() creates or truncates that path without
 using the pkg.Root confinement boundary backed by YUTU_ROOT. A principal able to invoke caption-download,
 including a local HTTP client when the MCP server runs with its default authentication-disabled
 configuration, can write downloaded caption bytes to any path writable by the yutu process outside
 YUTU_ROOT. This can overwrite application files, configuration, shell startup files, logs, or data and can
 cause persistent code execution or denial of service depending on the selected writable target. Live
 caption retrieval also requires usable service credentials and an accessible caption identifier. This
 issue is fixed in version 0.10.9. (CVE-2026-50158)

Solution

Update the github.com/eat-pray-ai/yutu library and its related packages to version 0.10.9-dev1 or later.
