high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 411008

Description

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

- RestrictedPython is a restricted execution environment for Python to run untrusted code. A user can gain
access to protected (and potentially sensible) information indirectly via AttributeError.obj and the
string module. The problem will be fixed in version 7.3. As a workaround, If the application does not
require access to the module string, it can remove it from RestrictedPython.Utilities.utility_builtins or
otherwise do not make it available in the restricted execution environment. (CVE-2024-47532)
