SCA: security update for music-metadata (GHSA-53v6-4h7p-p4gj)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473984

Description

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

- music-metadata is a metadata parser for audio and video media files. Prior to 11.16.0, the APEv2 parser
reads an attacker-controlled tag-item size and allocates a Uint8Array for a binary item before proving
that the declared item fits in the remaining tag or file data. A small crafted APE file can therefore
trigger a disproportionate allocation, including through cover-art items, and repeated or concurrent
parsing can exhaust process memory. The demonstrated impact is availability loss only. This issue is fixed
in version 11.16.0. (CVE-2026-107387)

Solution

Update the music-metadata library and its related packages to version 11.16.0 or later.
