SCA: security update for github.com/datacharmer/dbdeployer (GHSA-47wr-426j-fr82)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 433678

Description

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

 - DBdeployer is a tool that deploys MySQL database servers easily. In DBdeployer before version 1.58.2,
 users unpacking a tarball may use a maliciously packaged tarball that contains symlinks to files external
 to the target. In such scenario, an attacker could induce dbdeployer to write into a system file, thus
 altering the computer defenses. For the attack to succeed, the following factors need to contribute: 1)
 The user is logged in as root. While dbdeployer is usable as root, it was designed to run as unprivileged
 user. 2) The user has taken a tarball from a non secure source, without testing the checksum. When the
 tarball is retrieved through dbdeployer, the checksum is compared before attempting to unpack. This has
 been fixed in version 1.58.2. (CVE-2020-26277)
