high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 413126

Description

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

- Hyperledger Aries Cloud Agent Python (ACA-Py) is a foundation for building decentralized identity
applications and services running in non-mobile environments. When verifying W3C Format Verifiable
Credentials using JSON-LD with Linked Data Proofs (LDP-VCs), the result of verifying the presentation
`document.proof` was not factored into the final `verified` value (`true`/`false`) on the presentation
record. The flaw enables holders of W3C Format Verifiable Credentials using JSON-LD with Linked Data
Proofs (LDPs) to present incorrectly constructed proofs, and allows malicious verifiers to save and replay
a presentation from such holders as their own. This vulnerability has been present since version 0.7.0 and
fixed in version 0.10.5. (CVE-2024-21669)
