SCA: security update for grumpydictator/firefly-iii (GHSA-4gm4-c4mh-4p7w)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 410180

Description

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

- Firefly III is a free and open source personal finance manager. In affected versions an MFA bypass in the
Firefly III OAuth flow may allow malicious users to bypass the MFA-check. This allows malicious users to
use password spraying to gain access to Firefly III data using passwords stolen from other sources. As
OAuth applications are easily enumerable using an incrementing id, an attacker could try sign an OAuth
application up to a users profile quite easily if they have created one. The attacker would also need to
know the victims username and password. This problem has been patched in Firefly III v6.1.17 and up. Users
are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade should Use a unique password for their Firefly III
instance and store their password securely, i.e. in a password manager. (CVE-2024-37893)
