SCA: security update for twisted (GHSA-vg46-2rrj-3647)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 419316

Description

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

- Twisted is an event-based framework for internet applications. Started with version 0.9.4, when the host
header does not match a configured host `twisted.web.vhost.NameVirtualHost` will return a `NoResource`
resource which renders the Host header unescaped into the 404 response allowing HTML and script injection.
In practice this should be very difficult to exploit as being able to modify the Host header of a normal
HTTP request implies that one is already in a privileged position. This issue was fixed in version
22.10.0rc1. There are no known workarounds. (CVE-2022-39348)
