SCA: security update for github.com/lxc/incus/v6 (GHSA-9q7c-qmhm-jv86)

low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 436783

Description

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

 - Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. When using an ACL on a device connected to a
 bridge, Incus version 6.12 and 6.13 generates nftables rules for local services (DHCP, DNS...) that
 partially bypass security options `security.mac_filtering`, `security.ipv4_filtering` and
 `security.ipv6_filtering`. This can lead to DHCP pool exhaustion and opens the door for other attacks. A
 patch is available at commit 2516fb19ad8428454cb4edfe70c0a5f0dc1da214. (CVE-2025-52889)

Solution

Update the github.com/lxc/incus/v6 library and its related packages to version 6.14.0 or later.
