SCA: security update for shiny (GHSA-47c3-hpmg-7j6p)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 474077

Description

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

- Shiny for Python is a framework for building interactive web applications in Python. From 1.4.0 until
1.6.4, bookmark restore accepts a client-supplied state_id and joins it into the server-side
shiny_bookmarks directory without validating that it is a single safe path segment. An unauthenticated
request can use parent-directory segments or an absolute path to make the server open input.json and
values.json outside the bookmark store, even when bookmark_store is set to disable. In applications
configured with bookmark_store set to server and using ui.input_file(), the restore handler can
additionally copy and expose an attacker-selected file from an attacker-selected directory. This issue is
fixed in version 1.6.4. (CVE-2026-108258)

Solution

Update the shiny library and its related packages to version 1.6.4 or later.
