high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 412958

Description

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

 - An authentication bypass vulnerability was discovered in kube-apiserver. This issue could allow a remote,
 authenticated attacker who has been given permissions "update, patch" the "pods/ephemeralcontainers"
 subresource beyond what the default is. They would then need to create a new pod or patch one that they
 already have access to. This might allow evasion of SCC admission restrictions, thereby gaining control of
 a privileged pod. (CVE-2023-1260)
