SCA: security update for org.rundeck:rundeck (GHSA-hprf-rrwq-jm5c)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 415875

Description

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

- Rundeck is an open source automation service with a web console, command line tools and a WebAPI. The Key
Storage converter plugin mechanism was not enabled correctly in Rundeck 4.2.0 and 4.2.1, resulting in use
of the encryption layer for Key Storage possibly not working. Any credentials created or overwritten using
Rundeck 4.2.0 or 4.2.1 might result in them being written in plaintext to the backend storage. This
affects those using any `Storage Converter` plugin. Rundeck 4.3.1 and 4.2.2 have fixed the code and upon
upgrade will re-encrypt any plain text values. Version 4.3.0 does not have the vulnerability, but does not
include the patch to re-encrypt plain text values if 4.2.0 or 4.2.1 were used. To prevent plaintext
credentials from being stored in Rundeck 4.2.0/4.2.1, write access to key storage can be disabled via
ACLs. After upgrading to 4.3.1 or later, write access can be restored. (CVE-2022-31044)
