SCA: security update for github.com/drakkan/sftpgo/v2 (GHSA-54qx-8p8w-xhg8)
high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 410571
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- SFTPGo is configurable SFTP server with optional HTTP/S, FTP/S and WebDAV support. SFTPGo WebAdmin and
WebClient support login using TOTP (Time-based One Time Passwords) as a secondary authentication factor.
Because TOTPs are often configured on mobile devices that can be lost, stolen or damaged, SFTPGo also
supports recovery codes. These are a set of one time use codes that can be used instead of the TOTP. In
SFTPGo versions from version 2.2.0 to 2.3.3 recovery codes can be generated before enabling two-factor
authentication. An attacker who knows the user's password could potentially generate some recovery codes
and then bypass two-factor authentication after it is enabled on the account at a later time. This issue
has been fixed in version 2.3.4. Recovery codes can now only be generated after enabling two-factor
authentication and are deleted after disabling it. (CVE-2022-36071)
