high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 412417

Description

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

- Directus is a real-time API and App dashboard for managing SQL database content. Starting in version
11.0.0 and prior to version 11.3.0, when setting `WEBSOCKETS_GRAPHQL_AUTH` or `WEBSOCKETS_REST_AUTH` to
"public", an unauthenticated user is able to do any of the supported operations (CRUD, subscriptions) with
full admin privileges. This impacts any Directus instance that has either `WEBSOCKETS_GRAPHQL_AUTH` or
`WEBSOCKETS_REST_AUTH` set to `public` allowing unauthenticated users to subscribe for changes on any
collection or do REST CRUD operations on user defined collections ignoring permissions. Version 11.3.0
fixes the issue. (CVE-2024-54151)
