Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'python-imageio' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0244 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
imageio can attempt to download shared freeimage libraries from
[link moved to references]. The
code fetches straight from master and provides no way of verifying
whether the correct file was fetched. As a result, if the repository is
attacked in the future, all prior versions of imageio would be silently
downloading arbitrary shared libraries and running them on user systems.
This is a serious problem.

Affected Software/OS:
'python-imageio' package(s) on Mageia 9.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.0
