SCA: security update for Microsoft.OpenAPI.Kiota, Microsoft.OpenAPI.Kiota.Builder (GHSA-xg2h-5xr2-29jw)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 445276

Description

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

 - Kiota is an OpenAPI based HTTP Client code generator. Prior to 1.32.0, Kiota's Ruby generator embedded
 OpenAPI default fields, property names, and other schema-derived strings through CodeMethodWriter.cs and
 SanitizeForQuotedLiteral() in Writers/StringExtensions.cs into Ruby double-quoted literals without
 escaping #, allowing attacker-controlled #{expr}, #$var, or #@var interpolation markers to inject
 arbitrary Ruby code into generated model classes. This issue is fixed in version 1.32.0. (CVE-2026-59861)

Solution

Update the Microsoft.OpenAPI.Kiota library and its related packages to version 1.32.0 or later.
