Alpine: py3-jinja2: security update to 3.1.5-r0

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 408571

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

 - Jinja is an extensible templating engine. In versions on the 3.x branch prior to 3.1.5, a bug in the Jinja
 compiler allows an attacker that controls both the content and filename of a template to execute arbitrary
 Python code, regardless of if Jinja's sandbox is used. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker needs to
 control both the filename and the contents of a template. Whether that is the case depends on the type of
 application using Jinja. This vulnerability impacts users of applications which execute untrusted
 templates where the template author can also choose the template filename. This vulnerability is fixed in
 3.1.5. (CVE-2024-56201)

 - Jinja is an extensible templating engine. Prior to 3.1.5, An oversight in how the Jinja sandboxed
 environment detects calls to str.format allows an attacker that controls the content of a template to
 execute arbitrary Python code. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker needs to control the content of a
 template. Whether that is the case depends on the type of application using Jinja. This vulnerability
 impacts users of applications which execute untrusted templates. Jinja's sandbox does catch calls to
 str.format and ensures they don't escape the sandbox. However, it's possible to store a reference to a
 malicious string's format method, then pass that to a filter that calls it. No such filters are built-in
 to Jinja, but could be present through custom filters in an application. After the fix, such indirect
 calls are also handled by the sandbox. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.5. (CVE-2024-56326)
