high Nessus Plugin ID 232922

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing a security update.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS / 24.10 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-7354-1 advisory.

 Diego Cebrin discovered that djoser did not properly handle user authentication. An attacker with valid credentials could possibly use this to bypass authentication checks, such as two-factor authentication, to gain unintended access.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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 python3-djoser package.
