SCA: security update for github.com/0xJacky/Nginx-UI (GHSA-cf23-7qxj-xmhr)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 474696

Description

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

- Nginx UI is a web user interface for the Nginx web server. Prior to 2.4.1, config.ValidateConfigDirectives
splits configuration by newline and checks only the first directive token on each line even though Nginx
permits multiple semicolon-separated directives on one line. An authenticated caller can place a benign
directive first and a restricted load_module, js_import, perl, or user root directive later on the same
line, or can use an unrestricted include directive to load restricted content. These mechanisms bypass
validation on REST, nginx_config_modify, site, and stream write paths; when an executable module is
available, the injected configuration can execute code in the Nginx worker context. This issue is fixed in
version 2.4.1. (CVE-2026-84316)

Solution

Update the github.com/0xJacky/Nginx-UI library and its related packages to version 1.9.10-0.20260703131214-23d1934099b0 or later.
