SCA: security update for passport-oauth2 (GHSA-f794-r6xc-hf3v)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 414355

Description

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

 - The passport-oauth2 package before 1.6.1 for Node.js mishandles the error condition of failure to obtain
 an access token. This is exploitable in certain use cases where an OAuth identity provider uses an HTTP
 200 status code for authentication-failure error reports, and an application grants authorization upon
 simply receiving the access token (i.e., does not try to use the token). NOTE: the passport-oauth2 vendor
 does not consider this a passport-oauth2 vulnerability (CVE-2021-41580)
