SCA: security update for toml (GHSA-9qmh-m7c6-f92p)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 476838

Description

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

 - toml-node is a TOML parser for Node.js and the browser. Prior to 5.0.1, toml.parse() passes unbounded
 hexadecimal, octal, binary, and decimal digit sequences from lib/parser.js to BigInt() before
 reduceInteger() in lib/compiler.js checks whether the resulting value fits the TOML 64-bit integer range.
 Converting a sufficiently long integer string consumes super-linear CPU time and synchronously blocks the
 Node.js event loop, allowing one attacker-supplied TOML document to deny service to concurrent work in the
 process. The later range check cannot prevent the conversion cost because it executes after BigInt(). This
 issue is fixed in version 5.0.1. (CVE-2026-114144)

Solution

Update the toml library and its related packages to version 5.0.1 or later.
