SCA: security update for wger (GHSA-9qpr-vc49-hqg2)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478595

Description

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

 - wger is a free, open-source workout and fitness manager. In versions prior to 2.6, a gym trainer can
 escalate their session to any higher-privileged account (gym manager, general manager) by chaining two
 calls to the trainer-login endpoint. Once a trainer performs a legitimate switch into a low-privileged
 user, the session flag trainer.identity is set and this flag alone bypasses the permission check on all
 subsequent trainer-login calls. This grants full gym administration capabilities including viewing all
 member data, modifying contracts, managing gym configuration, and accessing other trainers' and managers'
 personal information. This issue has been fixed in version 2.6. (CVE-2026-43978)
