2.4.9- Upgrade rdiffweb to this version or later
Description
rdiffweb prior to version 2.4.9 is vulnerable to Use of Cache Containing Sensitive Information. Due to improper cache control, an attacker can view sensitive information even if they are not logged into an account. Version 2.4.9 contains a patch for this issue.
Affected versions
PyPI
How to fix
Move to the fixed version or later with your package manager, update the lockfile, and run your tests. If the package only arrives through another dependency, upgrade that dependency first. If none of its releases pulls a fixed version yet, force the version with your package manager's override.
rdiffweb PyPI → 2.4.9
- pip
pip install --upgrade "rdiffweb>=2.4.9"- poetry
poetry add "rdiffweb>=2.4.9"- uv
uv add "rdiffweb>=2.4.9"
