medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 439184

Description

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

 - FileBrowser Quantum is a free, self-hosted, web-based file manager. Prior to version 1.3.2-beta, the
 `/api/auth/login` authentication endpoint does not execute in constant time. When a non-existent username
 is supplied, the server returns a `401`/`403` response almost immediately. When a valid username is
 provided, the server performs a bcrypt password comparison, causing a measurable delay in the response
 time. Version 1.3.2-beta patches the issue. (CVE-2026-54685)

Solution

Update the github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/backend library and its related packages to version 0.0.0-20260317230626-af08800667b8 or later.
