medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 408396

Description

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

 - This repository hosts source code implementing the Trusted Computing Group's (TCG) TPM2 Software Stack
 (TSS). The JSON Quote Info returned by Fapi_Quote has to be deserialized by Fapi_VerifyQuote to the TPM
 Structure `TPMS_ATTEST`. For the field `TPM2_GENERATED magic` of this structure any number can be used in
 the JSON structure. The verifier can receive a state which does not represent the actual, possibly
 malicious state of the device under test. The malicious device might get access to data it shouldn't, or
 can use services it shouldn't be able to. This issue has been patched in version 4.1.0. (CVE-2024-29040)
