SCA: security update for github.com/0xJacky/Nginx-UI (GHSA-2gc7-j998-5xx6)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 474697

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, the POST /api/users/:id user-
 management endpoint permits an authenticated user to change another user's password without passing
 RequireSecureSession, even though the self-service password-change path requires that step-up. An attacker
 with an authenticated account can change the initial administrator's password, invalidate existing
 administrator tokens, and then authenticate as the administrator. This issue is fixed in version 2.4.1.
 (CVE-2026-84314)

Solution

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