CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: telegraf / libcontainers-common (CVE-2024-37298)

high Nessus Plugin ID 202740

Synopsis

The remote CBL Mariner host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of telegraf / libcontainers-common installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version.
It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-37298 advisory.

 - gorilla/schema converts structs to and from form values. Prior to version 1.4.1 Running `schema.Decoder.Decode()` on a struct that has a field of type `[]struct{...}` opens it up to malicious attacks regarding memory allocations, taking advantage of the sparse slice functionality. Any use of `schema.Decoder.Decode()` on a struct with arrays of other structs could be vulnerable to this memory exhaustion vulnerability. Version 1.4.1 contains a patch for the issue. (CVE-2024-37298)

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
