SCA: security update for invenio-app-rdm, invenio-drafts-resources, invenio-rdm-records (GHSA-xr38-w74q-r8jv)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 420633

Description

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

 - Invenio-Drafts-Resources is a submission/deposit module for Invenio, a software framework for research
 data management. Invenio-Drafts-Resources prior to versions 0.13.7 and 0.14.6 does not properly check
 permissions when a record is published. The vulnerability is exploitable in a default installation of
 InvenioRDM. An authenticated a user is able via REST API calls to publish draft records of other users if
 they know the record identifier and the draft validates (e.g. all require fields filled out). An attacker
 is not able to modify the data in the record, and thus e.g. *cannot* change a record from restricted to
 public. The problem is patched in Invenio-Drafts-Resources v0.13.7 and 0.14.6, which is part of InvenioRDM
 v6.0.1 and InvenioRDM v7.0 respectively. (CVE-2021-43781)
