Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity Affecting superset-fips-6.1 package, versions <6.1.0-r8
Threat Intelligence
The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version. Check out the EPSS documentation for more details.

Upgrade Chainguard superset-fips-6.1 to version 6.1.0-r8 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream superset-fips-6.1 package and not the superset-fips-6.1 package as distributed by Chainguard.
See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.
geopy is a geocoding library for Python. Prior to 2.5.0, geopy.Point and Point.from_string() can spend excessive CPU time due to inefficient regular-expression behavior when an application passes a long malformed coordinate string without the 256-character input limit used by the fix. Geocoder reverse methods also reach the vulnerable parsing path when called with string inputs. Repeated attacker-controlled requests can cause a denial of service, while the numeric Point constructor is unaffected. This issue is fixed in version 2.5.0.
