Overview

ethyca-fides is an Open-source ecosystem for data privacy as code.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Client-Side Enforcement of Server-Side Security due to improper implementation of password policy validations in the /api/v1/user/accept-invite endpoint. An attacker can compromise a user's account by setting an extremely weak password during the initial account setup process by bypassing client-side password complexity checks.
