CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: tensorflow / python3 (CVE-2024-8088)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 207871

Synopsis

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

Description

The version of tensorflow / python3 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-2024-8088 advisory.

 - There is a HIGH severity vulnerability affecting the CPython zipfile module affecting zipfile.Path.
 Note that the more common API zipfile.ZipFile class is unaffected. When iterating over names of entries in a zip archive (for example, methods of zipfile.Path like namelist(), iterdir(), etc) the process can be put into an infinite loop with a maliciously crafted zip archive. This defect applies when reading only metadata or extracting the contents of the zip archive. Programs that are not handling user- controlled zip archives are not affected. (CVE-2024-8088)

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.
