SCA: security update for vm2 (GHSA-3vgf-8m4q-q4qr)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473018

Description

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

 - vm2 versions from 3.11.0 before 3.11.8 fail to protect host TypedArray and ArrayBuffer prototypes from
 sandbox mutation. Attackers can use prototype-walking primitives to reach and modify host
 Uint8Array.prototype, %TypedArray%.prototype, and ArrayBuffer.prototype, causing host-created typed arrays
 to observe attacker-controlled properties after VM.run() returns. (CVE-2026-92953)

Solution

Update the vm2 library and its related packages to version 3.11.8 or later.
