CVE-2024-39896: directus Information Disclosure

Description

Directus is a real-time API and App dashboard for managing SQL database content.

This is possible because if an email address exists in Directus and belongs to a known SSO provider then it will throw a "helpful" error that the user belongs to another provider. This vulnerability is fixed in 10.13.0.
