Echo: axios: security update to 0.34.0

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 465522

Description

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

- Axios is a promise-based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js. From 0.27.2 until 0.34.0 and 1.20.0,
Axios default-instance requests that omit an explicit method can read an inherited method value from
Object.prototype. If another vulnerability in the same process pollutes Object.prototype.method, calls
such as axios.request({ url }) and axios({ url }) can send a state-changing HTTP method instead of the
expected default GET. Axios does not create the prototype pollution source. This is a read-side gadget in
axios request dispatch. This issue is fixed in version 0.34.0 and 1.20.0. (CVE-2026-101902)

Solution

Update the axios library and its related packages to version 0.34.0 or later.
