"jupyterlab is an extensible environment for interactive and reproducible computing, based on the Jupyter Notebook
Architecture. The detected version of the JupyterLab Python package is prior to 4.5.10, or 4.6.x prior to 4.6.2. It
is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability:

  - JupyterLab contains an allowlist/blocklist enforcement gap in PyPIExtensionManager.install(). A missing
    'await' caused the is_install_allowed coroutine to never execute, so the extension allowlist/blocklist check
    was not enforced for direct callers of install(). The stock JupyterLab HTTP API and Extension Manager UI are
    not affected, as they perform a separate, correctly awaited check. (CVE-2026-73626)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
