SCA: security update for Flask-Security-Too (GHSA-97r5-pg8x-p63p)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 442340

Description

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

 - Flask-Security-Too allows users to add security features to their Flask applicationa. Version 5.8.0's
 OAuth reauthentication flow can mark a session as fresh after verifying an OAuth account that belongs to a
 different user. If an attacker can operate an already-authenticated but stale victim session, they can
 complete OAuth verification using their own OAuth identity. The victim session is then treated as recently
 reauthenticated, allowing freshness-protected account actions to proceed. Version 5.8.1 contains a fix for
 this issue. (CVE-2026-46715)

Solution

Update the Flask-Security-Too library and its related packages to version 5.8.1 or later.
