medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 441794

Description

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

 - Authlib is a Python library which builds OAuth and OpenID Connect servers. Prior to 1.6.12 and 1.7.1, an
 unauthenticated open redirect in Authlib's OpenIDImplicitGrant and OpenIDHybridGrant authorization
 endpoint lets a remote attacker cause the authorization server to issue an HTTP 302 to an attacker-chosen
 URL by submitting an authorization request that omits the openid scope. This vulnerability is fixed in
 1.6.12 and 1.7.1. (CVE-2026-44681)

Solution

Update the authlib library and its related packages to version 1.6.12 or later.
