It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2022-2022-156 advisory.

    A bug was found in containerd's CRI implementation where programs inside a container can cause the     containerd daemon to consume memory without bound during invocation of the ExecSync API. This can cause     containerd to consume all available memory on the computer, denying service to other legitimate workloads.
    Kubernetes and crictl can both be configured to use containerd's CRI implementation; ExecSync may be used     when running probes or when executing processes via an exec facility. (CVE-2022-31030)

    A flaw was found in Moby. This flaw allows an attacker to bypass primary group restrictions due to a flaw     in the supplementary group access setup. (CVE-2022-36109)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
