SCA: security update for gradio (GHSA-77xq-6g77-h274)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 411921

Description

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

 - Gradio is an open-source Python package designed for quick prototyping. This vulnerability relates to the
 **bypass of directory traversal checks** within the `is_in_or_equal` function. This function, intended to
 check if a file resides within a given directory, can be bypassed with certain payloads that manipulate
 file paths using `..` (parent directory) sequences. Attackers could potentially access restricted files if
 they are able to exploit this flaw, although the difficulty is high. This primarily impacts users relying
 on Gradio’s blocklist or directory access validation, particularly when handling file uploads. Users are
 advised to upgrade to `gradio>=5.0` to address this issue. As a workaround, users can manually sanitize
 and normalize file paths in their Gradio deployment before passing them to the `is_in_or_equal` function.
 Ensuring that all file paths are properly resolved and absolute can help mitigate the bypass
 vulnerabilities caused by the improper handling of `..` sequences or malformed paths. (CVE-2024-47164)
