SCA: security update for phanan/koel (GHSA-w79m-f3jx-779v)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 444740

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 9.7.0, the Subsonic-compatible
createPodcastChannel.view route accepts an authenticated user's private URL because
app/Http/Requests/Subsonic/CreatePodcastChannelRequest.php does not apply the SafeUrl validation used by
the regular podcast API. app/Http/Controllers/Subsonic/CreatePodcastChannelController.php passes the URL
to app/Services/Podcast/PodcastService.php, where PodcastService::addPodcast() and createParser() invoke
Poddle::fromUrl() during channel creation, causing immediate server-side requests to loopback, Docker
bridge, or RFC1918 HTTP destinations. The confirmed impact is blind internal request execution because
generic response-body exfiltration was not demonstrated through this route. This issue is fixed in version
9.7.0. (CVE-2026-54492)

Solution

Update the phanan/koel library and its related packages to version 9.7.0 or later.
