SCA: security update for magicmirror (GHSA-w26r-fwg8-rcp3)

low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 446057

Description

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

 - MagicMirror² is an open source modular smart mirror platform. Prior to 2.37.0, MagicMirror applies
 ipWhitelist only as Express middleware, while the Socket.IO server in js/server.js is attached directly to
 the HTTP server without equivalent IP allowlist, origin, or namespace authentication checks. In a
 documented non-loopback deployment that relies on ipWhitelist, an unauthenticated adjacent-network client
 can connect directly to module Socket.IO namespaces, and js/node_helper.js dispatches arbitrary events and
 payloads to socketNotificationReceived. The default newsfeed and calendar helpers can make server-side
 requests to attacker-selected URLs, while the default updatenotification helper can reach
 child_process.exec when a third-party module update is pending and the attacker supplies an update command
 through the socket CONFIG path. This can expose internal services, manipulate module-helper state, and
 conditionally execute commands. This issue is fixed in version 2.37.0. (CVE-2026-63641)

Solution

Update the magicmirror library and its related packages to version 2.37.0 or later.
