"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.

  - Python Social Auth is a social authentication/registration mechanism. Prior to version 5.0.0, the Vend
    OAuth2 backend used only the numeric Vend user_id as the social-auth UID. When multiple Vend shops
    authenticate through the same application, users from different shops with the same internal Vend user ID
    could collide in the social-auth association table. A user from one shop could then be authenticated as
    the local account previously associated with the same numeric user ID from another shop. The issue affects
    applications using the Vend OAuth2 backend with more than one Vend shop. Version 5.0.0 patches the issue.
