SCA: security update for gradio (GHSA-f8xq-q7px-wg8c)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 414403

Description

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

- `gradio` is an open source framework for building interactive machine learning models and demos. Prior to
version 2.8.11, `gradio` suffers from Improper Neutralization of Formula Elements in a CSV File. The
`gradio` library has a flagging functionality which saves input/output data into a CSV file on the
developer's computer. This can allow a user to save arbitrary text into the CSV file, such as commands. If
a program like MS Excel opens such a file, then it automatically runs these commands, which could lead to
arbitrary commands running on the user's computer. The problem has been patched as of `2.8.11`, which
escapes the saved csv with single quotes. As a workaround, avoid opening csv files generated by `gradio`
with Excel or similar spreadsheet programs. (CVE-2022-24770)
