How to Fix GHSA-879p-8gw4-mcpw

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Fgr dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

fgr fixed: Latest secure release 
pip install fgr>=Latest secure release
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

pip show fgr

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by GHSA-879p-8gw4-mcpw, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show fgr

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Fgr in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: The pip show fgr command checks currently installed packages in your active Python environment.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-453: Insecure Default Variable Initialization, where the product, by default, initializes an internal variable with an insecure or less secure value than is possible. In Fgr, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### Impact Any users whom would not desire a traceback to be included in their logs whenever an error is raised in their code will be affected. If users have inadvertently created a scenario in their code that could cause a traceback to include sensitive information _and_ a malicious entity gained access to their log stream, this could create an issue. ### Patches None yet... users will need to upgrade to `0.4.*` ### Workarounds No particularly reasonable ones at present. ### References * https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/453.html * https://www.invicti.com/web-vulnerability-scanner/vulnerabilities/stack-trace-disclosure-python/
