How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:7 ipsilon-authform.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ipsilon-authform package and not the ipsilon-authform package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The Identity Provider (IdP) server in Ipsilon 0.1.0 before 1.0.1 does not properly escape certain characters in a Python exception-message template, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via an HTTP response.
