SCA: security update for org.biscuitsec:biscuit (GHSA-5hcj-rwm6-xmw4)
medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 410856
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- biscuit-java is the java implementation of Biscuit, an authentication and authorization token for
microservices architectures. Third-party blocks can be generated without transferring the whole token to
the third-party authority. Instead, a ThirdPartyBlock request can be sent, providing only the necessary
info to generate a third-party block and to sign it, which includes the public key of the previous block
(used in the signature) and the public keys part of the token symbol table (for public key interning in
datalog expressions). A third-part block request forged by a malicious user can trick the third-party
authority into generating datalog trusting the wrong keypair. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.0.0.
