SCA: security update for github.com/cilium/cilium (GHSA-wh78-7948-358j)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 419936

Description

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

- Cilium is a networking, observability, and security solution with an eBPF-based dataplane. Starting in
version 1.13.0 and prior to versions 1.13.7, 1.14.12, and 1.15.6, the output of `cilium-bugtool` can
contain sensitive data when the tool is run (with the `--envoy-dump` flag set) against Cilium deployments
with the Envoy proxy enabled. Users of the TLS inspection, Ingress with TLS termination, Gateway API with
TLS termination, and Kafka network policies with API key filtering features are affected. The sensitive
data includes the CA certificate, certificate chain, and private key used by Cilium HTTP Network Policies,
and when using Ingress/Gateway API and the API keys used in Kafka-related network policy. `cilium-bugtool`
is a debugging tool that is typically invoked manually and does not run during the normal operation of a
Cilium cluster. This issue has been patched in Cilium v1.15.6, v1.14.12, and v1.13.17. There is no
workaround to this issue. (CVE-2024-37307)
