SCA: security update for jupyterlab (GHSA-89vp-jrxv-24w8)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 445177

Description

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

- jupyterlab is an extensible environment for interactive and reproducible computing, based on the Jupyter
Notebook Architecture. From 4.5.0 until 4.5.10 and 4.6.2, in jupyterlab/extensions/manager.py and
jupyterlab/extensions/pypi.py, JupyterLab's PyPI extension manager enforces blocked_extensions_uris by
comparing requested install names to blocklist entries with custom normalization that is weaker than PyPI
package-name canonicalization. An authenticated user can request a PyPI-equivalent spelling such as
JupyterLab.Git for a blocklisted package such as jupyterlab-git, and JupyterLab accepts the install
request even though pip resolves the variant to the same package. Security impact requires an allowlist or
blocklist intended to restrict package installation, the PyPI Extension Manager, and kernels and terminals
that are disabled or delegated to remote hosts. The bypass lets an authenticated user install a prohibited
extension, defeat integrity restrictions, and affect availability without gaining new read access. This
issue is fixed in versions 4.5.10 and 4.6.2. (CVE-2026-73416)

Solution

Update the jupyterlab library and its related packages to version 4.5.10 or later.
