SCA: security update for mlflow (GHSA-rfqq-wq6w-72jm)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 418711

Description

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

 - A path traversal vulnerability exists in mlflow/mlflow version 2.11.0, identified as a bypass for the
 previously addressed CVE-2023-6909. The vulnerability arises from the application's handling of artifact
 URLs, where a '#' character can be used to insert a path into the fragment, effectively skipping
 validation. This allows an attacker to construct a URL that, when processed, ignores the protocol scheme
 and uses the provided path for filesystem access. As a result, an attacker can read arbitrary files,
 including sensitive information such as SSH and cloud keys, by exploiting the way the application converts
 the URL into a filesystem path. The issue stems from insufficient validation of the fragment portion of
 the URL, leading to arbitrary file read through path traversal. (CVE-2024-3848)
