SCA: security update for gradio (GHSA-j757-pf57-f8r4)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 416202

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 involves a
 **timing attack** in the way Gradio compares hashes for the `analytics_dashboard` function. Since the
 comparison is not done in constant time, an attacker could exploit this by measuring the response time of
 different requests to infer the correct hash byte-by-byte. This can lead to unauthorized access to the
 analytics dashboard, especially if the attacker can repeatedly query the system with different keys. Users
 are advised to upgrade to `gradio>4.44` to mitigate this issue. To mitigate the risk before applying the
 patch, developers can manually patch the `analytics_dashboard` dashboard to use a **constant-time
 comparison** function for comparing sensitive values, such as hashes. Alternatively, access to the
 analytics dashboard can be disabled. (CVE-2024-47869)
