high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 416979

Description

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

 - Passeo is an open source python password generator. Versions prior to 1.0.5 rely on the python `random`
 library for random value selection. The python `random` library warns that it should not be used for
 security purposes due to its reliance on a non-cryptographically secure random number generator. As a
 result a motivated attacker may be able to guess generated passwords. This issue has been addressed in
 version 1.0.5. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
