SCA: security update for github.com/cilium/cilium (GHSA-24qp-4xx8-3jvj)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 421216

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 Cilium
users who use Gateway API for Ingress for some services and use LB-IPAM or BGP for LB Service
implementation and use network policies to block egress traffic from workloads in a namespace to workloads
in other namespaces, egress traffic from workloads covered by such network policies to LoadBalancers
configured by `Gateway` resources will incorrectly be allowed. LoadBalancer resources not deployed via a
Gateway API configuration are not affected by this issue. This issue affects: Cilium v1.15 between v1.15.0
and v1.15.14 inclusive, v1.16 between v1.16.0 and v1.16.7 inclusive, and v1.17 between v1.17.0 and v1.17.1
inclusive. This issue is fixed in Cilium v1.15.15, v1.16.8, and v1.17.2. A Clusterwide Cilium Network
Policy can be used to work around this issue for users who are unable to upgrade. (CVE-2025-30162)
