SCA: security update for github.com/docker/cli (GHSA-99pg-grm5-qq3v)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 434059

Description

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

 - Docker CLI is the command line interface for the docker container runtime. A bug was found in the Docker
 CLI where running `docker login my-private-registry.example.com` with a misconfigured configuration file
 (typically `~/.docker/config.json`) listing a `credsStore` or `credHelpers` that could not be executed
 would result in any provided credentials being sent to `registry-1.docker.io` rather than the intended
 private registry. This bug has been fixed in Docker CLI 20.10.9. Users should update to this version as
 soon as possible. For users unable to update ensure that any configured credsStore or credHelpers entries
 in the configuration file reference an installed credential helper that is executable and on the PATH.
 (CVE-2021-41092)
