SCA: security update for commons-configuration:commons-configuration (GHSA-pvp8-3xj6-8c6x)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 446549

Description

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

 - Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability in Apache Commons Configuration 1.x. There are a number of
 issues in Apache Commons Configuration 1.x that allow excessive resource consumption when loading
 untrusted configurations or using unexpected usage patterns. The Apache Commons Configuration team does
 not intend to fix these issues in 1.x. Apache Commons Configuration 1.x is still safe to use in scenario's
 where you only load trusted configurations. Users that load untrusted configurations or give attackers
 control over usage patterns are recommended to upgrade to the 2.x version line, which fixes these issues.
 Apache Commons Configuration 2.x is not a drop-in replacement, but as it uses a separate Maven groupId and
 Java package namespace they can be loaded side-by-side, making it possible to do a gradual migration.
 (CVE-2025-46392)
