How to Fix CVE-2022-24757

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

jupyter-server fixed: 1.15.4 
pip install jupyter-server>=1.15.4
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 jupyter-server

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by CVE-2022-24757, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show jupyter-server

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Jupyter server in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.15.4), your application is affected.

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

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-532: Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File, where the product writes sensitive information to a log file. In Jupyter server, 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 _What kind of vulnerability is it?_ Anytime a 5xx error is triggered, the auth cookie and other header values are recorded in Jupyter Server logs by default. Considering these logs do not require root access, an attacker can monitor these logs, steal sensitive auth/cookie information, and gain access to the Jupyter server. ### Patches _Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_ Upgrade to Jupyter Server version 1.15.4 ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, or vulnerabilities to report, please email our security list [security@ipython.org](mailto:security@ipython.org).
