Alpine: multiple synapse packages: security update to 1.74.0-r0

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 407308

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Synapse is an open-source Matrix homeserver written and maintained by the Matrix.org Foundation. A
 malicious user on a Synapse homeserver X with permission to create certain state events can disable
 outbound federation from X to an arbitrary homeserver Y. Synapse instances with federation disabled are
 not affected. In versions of Synapse up to and including 1.73, Synapse did not limit the size of
 `invite_room_state`, meaning that it was possible to create an arbitrarily large invite event. Synapse
 1.74 refuses to create oversized `invite_room_state` fields. Server operators should upgrade to Synapse
 1.74 or newer urgently. (CVE-2023-32323)
