FreeBSD : py-social-auth-app-django -- Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity (b3affee8-04d1-11ef-8928-901b0ef714d4)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 194428

Language:

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the b3affee8-04d1-11ef-8928-901b0ef714d4 advisory.

- Python Social Auth is a social authentication/registration mechanism. Prior to version 5.4.1, due to default case-insensitive collation in MySQL or MariaDB databases, third-party authentication user IDs are not case-sensitive and could cause different IDs to match. This issue has been addressed by a fix released in version 5.4.1. An immediate workaround would be to change collation of the affected field.
(CVE-2024-32879)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
