SCA: security update for ethyca-fides (GHSA-3vpf-mcj7-5h38)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 409708

Description

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

- Fides is an open-source privacy engineering platform for managing the fulfillment of data privacy requests
in your runtime environment, and the enforcement of privacy regulations in your code. The Fides web
application allows data subject users to request access to their personal data. If the request is approved
by the data controller user operating the Fides web application, the data subject's personal data can then
retrieved from connected systems and data stores before being bundled together as a data subject access
request package for the data subject to download. Supported data formats for the package include json and
csv, but the most commonly used format is a series of HTML files compressed in a ZIP file. Once downloaded
and unzipped, the data subject user can browse the HTML files on their local machine. It was identified
that there was no validation of input coming from e.g. the connected systems and data stores which is
later reflected in the downloaded data. This can result in an HTML injection that can be abused e.g. for
phishing attacks or malicious JavaScript code execution, but only in the context of the data subject's
browser accessing a HTML page using the `file://` protocol. Exploitation is limited to rogue Admin UI
users, malicious connected system / data store users, and the data subject user if tricked via social
engineering into submitting malicious data themselves. This vulnerability has been patched in version
2.23.3. (CVE-2023-47114)
