SCA: security update for org.iq80.snappy:snappy (GHSA-8wh2-6qhj-h7j9)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 412903

Description

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

- iq80 Snappy is a compression/decompression library. When uncompressing certain data, Snappy tries to read
outside the bounds of the given byte arrays. Because Snappy uses the JDK class `sun.misc.Unsafe` to speed
up memory access, no additional bounds checks are performed and this has similar security consequences as
out-of-bounds access in C or C++, namely it can lead to non-deterministic behavior or crash the JVM. iq80
Snappy is not actively maintained anymore. As quick fix users can upgrade to version 0.5. (CVE-2024-36124)
