medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 420475

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. For users with
 the following configuration: 1. An allow policy that selects a Layer 3 destination and a port range `AND`
 2. A Layer 7 allow policy that selects a specific port within the first policy's range the Layer 7
 enforcement would not occur for the traffic selected by the Layer 7 policy. This issue only affects users
 who use Cilium's port range functionality, which was introduced in Cilium v1.16. This issue is patched in
 PR #35150. This issue affects Cilium v1.16 between v1.16.0 and v1.16.3 inclusive. This issue is patched in
 Cilium v1.16.4. Users are advised to upgrade. Users with network policies that match the pattern described
 above can work around the issue by rewriting any policies that use port ranges to individually specify the
 ports permitted for traffic. (CVE-2024-52529)
