SCA: security update for jupyter-server (GHSA-h56g-gq9v-vc8r)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 415478

Description

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

- The Jupyter Server provides the backend (i.e. the core services, APIs, and REST endpoints) for Jupyter web
applications like Jupyter notebook, JupyterLab, and Voila. Unhandled errors in API requests coming from an
authenticated user include traceback information, which can include path information. There is no known
mechanism by which to trigger these errors without authentication, so the paths revealed are not
considered particularly sensitive, given that the requesting user has arbitrary execution permissions
already in the same environment. A fix has been introduced in commit `0056c3aa52` which no longer includes
traceback information in JSON error responses. For compatibility, the traceback field is present, but
always empty. This commit has been included in version 2.11.2. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no
known workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2023-49080)
