low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478266

Description

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

- vantage6 is an open-source infrastructure for privacy preserving analysis. Prior to version 5.0.0, users
can reset their MFA token via API routes that send them an email. Currently the number of emails that is
sent is not limited. This gives attackers the option to flood someones mailbox with a lot of emails, and
would have adverse effects on the SMTP server which may be seen as spam sender. Note resetting the MFA
token requires a correct password, so the potential impact for this is very low. Version 5.0.0 fixes the
issue. No known workarounds are available. (CVE-2024-24769)

Solution

Update the vantage6 library and its related packages to version 5.0.0 or later.
