SCA: security update for imgaug (GHSA-g82g-j283-hj97)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 446778

Description

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

- The imgaug library thru 0.4.0 contains an insecure deserialization vulnerability in its
BackgroundAugmenter class within the multicore.py module. The class uses Python's pickle module to
deserialize data received via a multiprocessing queue in the _augment_images_worker() method without any
safety checks. An attacker who can influence the data placed into this queue (e.g., through social
engineering, malicious input scripts, or a compromised shared queue) can provide a malicious pickle
payload. When deserialized, this payload can execute arbitrary code in the context of the worker process,
leading to remote or local code execution depending on the deployment scenario. (CVE-2026-31235)

There is no known solution at this time.
