SCA: security update for phanan/koel (GHSA-6qvr-wjmv-v8mm)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 444739

Description

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

 - Koel is a free, open-source music streaming solution. Prior to 9.7.1, outbound podcast and radio fetch
 paths perform a point-in-time App\Helpers\Network::isPublicHost() or isSafeUrl() check without pinning the
 validated address, and most paths lack redirect-hop validation and do not revalidate every redirect
 target. PhanAn\Poddle\Poddle::fromUrl(), PodcastService::getStreamableUrl(),
 PodcastService::isPodcastObsolete(), App\Rules\HasAudioContentType, and App\Rules\SafeUrl can therefore
 follow an attacker-controlled redirect to an internal address or connect after DNS rebinding changes a
 public resolution to a private one. These paths are reachable through podcast and radio APIs, including
 createPodcastChannel, createInternetRadioStation, refreshPodcasts, apiResource podcasts, and
 radio/stations, allowing an authenticated user to request internal services or cloud metadata and
 potentially receive parsed or streamed response content. This issue is fixed in version 9.7.1.
 (CVE-2026-54491)

Solution

Update the phanan/koel library and its related packages to version 9.7.1 or later.
