medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 434128

Description

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

 - Moby is an open-source project created by Docker to enable software containerization. A bug was found in
 Moby (Docker Engine) where attempting to copy files using `docker cp` into a specially-crafted container
 can result in Unix file permission changes for existing files in the host’s filesystem, widening access to
 others. This bug does not directly allow files to be read, modified, or executed without an additional
 cooperating process. This bug has been fixed in Moby (Docker Engine) 20.10.9. Users should update to this
 version as soon as possible. Running containers do not need to be restarted. (CVE-2021-41089)
