SCA: security update for jupyter_enterprise_gateway (GHSA-f49j-v924-fx9w)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 442614

Description

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

 - Jupyter Enterprise Gateway launches remote Jupyter Notebook kernels across distributed clusters like
 Apache Spark, Kubernetes, and Docker Swarm. In versions 2.0.0rc2 and above, prior to 3.3.0, the
 environment variables (KERNEL_XXX) used during the rendering of the Kubernetes manifest are vulnerable to
 Server Side Template Injection (SSTI). By including Jinja2 template expressions it is possible to
 execution Python code and OS Commands in the Enterprise Gateway service. The code can use or steal the
 Kubernetes service account token, which can steal Kubernetes secrets and be used to fully compromise the
 Kubernetes cluster by scheduling a privileged pod or a pod with a hostPath volume mount. This issue has
 been fixed in version 3.3.0. (CVE-2026-44181)

Solution

Update the jupyter_enterprise_gateway library and its related packages to version 3.3.0 or later.
