SCA: security update for ethyca-fides (GHSA-8cm5-jfj2-26q7)

low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 412598

Description

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

- Fides is an open-source privacy engineering platform. The Fides webserver requires a connection to a
hosted PostgreSQL database for persistent storage of application data. If the password used by the
webserver for this database connection includes special characters such as `@` and `$`, webserver startup
fails and the part of the password following the special character is exposed in webserver error logs.
This is caused by improper escaping of the SQLAlchemy password string. As a result users are subject to a
partial exposure of hosted database password in webserver logs. The vulnerability has been patched in
Fides version `2.37.0`. Users are advised to upgrade to this version or later to secure their systems
against this threat. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2024-34715)
