high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 437374

Description

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

 - Skipper is an HTTP router and reverse proxy for service composition. Prior to version 0.24.0, when running
 Skipper as an Ingress controller, users with permissions to create an Ingress and a Service of type
 ExternalName can create routes that enable them to use Skipper's network access to reach internal
 services. Version 0.24.0 disables Kubernetes ExternalName by default. As a workaround, developers can
 allow list targets of an ExternalName and allow list via regular expressions. (CVE-2026-24470)
