SCA: security update for weasyprint (GHSA-983w-rhvv-gwmv)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 436820

Description

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

 - WeasyPrint helps web developers to create PDF documents. Prior to version 68.0, a server-side request
 forgery (SSRF) protection bypass exists in WeasyPrint's `default_url_fetcher`. The vulnerability allows
 attackers to access internal network resources (such as `localhost` services or cloud metadata endpoints)
 even when a developer has implemented a custom `url_fetcher` to block such access. This occurs because the
 underlying `urllib` library follows HTTP redirects automatically without re-validating the new destination
 against the developer's security policy. Version 68.0 contains a patch for the issue. (CVE-2025-68616)
