Echo: @grpc/grpc-js: security update to 1.13.6

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473573

Description

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

 - @grpc/grpc-js implements the core functionality of gRPC purely in JavaScript, without a C++ addon. Prior
 to 1.13.6 and 1.14.5, getAuthContext does not distinguish authorized from unauthorized peer certificates
 when server credentials set requireClientCertificate to false. When applications use the returned
 authentication context, they can treat an unauthorized certificate as authorized, causing improper
 authentication. @grpc/grpc-js-xds can reach this condition when RBAC authentication is enabled in affected
 configurations. This issue is fixed in version 1.14.5 and 1.13.6. (CVE-2026-101916)

Solution

Update the @grpc/grpc-js library and its related packages to version 1.13.6 or later.
