SCA: security update for libosdp (GHSA-7945-5mcv-f2pp)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 411956

Description

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

 - libosdp is an implementation of IEC 60839-11-5 OSDP (Open Supervised Device Protocol) and provides a C
 library with support for C++, Rust and Python3. At ospd_common.c, on the osdp_reply_name function, any
 reply id between REPLY_ACK and REPLY_XRD is valid, but names array do not declare all of the range. On a
 case of an undefined reply id within the range, name will be null (name = names[reply_id - REPLY_ACK];).
 Null name will casue a crash on next line: if (name[0] == '\0') as null[0] is invalid. As this logic is
 not limited to a secure connection, attacker may trigger this vulnerability without any prior knowledge.
 This issue is fixed in 2.4.0. (CVE-2024-52296)
