SCA: security update for django-unicorn (GHSA-g9wf-5777-gq43)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 420812

Description

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

 - Django-Unicorn adds modern reactive component functionality to Django templates. Affected versions of
 Django-Unicorn are vulnerable to python class pollution vulnerability. The vulnerability arises from the
 core functionality `set_property_value`, which can be remotely triggered by users by crafting appropriate
 component requests and feeding in values of second and third parameter to the vulnerable function, leading
 to arbitrary changes to the python runtime status. With this finding at least five ways of vulnerability
 exploitation have been observed, stably resulting in Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Denial of Service (DoS),
 and Authentication Bypass attacks in almost every Django-Unicorn-based application. This issue has been
 addressed in version 0.62.0 and all users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this
 vulnerability. (CVE-2025-24370)
