SCA: security update for apache-superset (GHSA-2q6j-vpvr-6pvj)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 409033

Description

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

- An SQL Injection vulnerability in Apache Superset exists due to improper neutralization of special
elements used in SQL commands. Specifically, certain engine-specific functions are not checked, which
allows attackers to bypass Apache Superset's SQL authorization. To mitigate this, a new configuration key
named DISALLOWED_SQL_FUNCTIONS has been introduced. This key disallows the use of the following PostgreSQL
functions: version, query_to_xml, inet_server_addr, and inet_client_addr. Additional functions can be
added to this list for increased protection. This issue affects Apache Superset: before 4.0.2. Users are
recommended to upgrade to version 4.0.2, which fixes the issue. (CVE-2024-39887)
