medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 442034

Description

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

 - OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation provides eBPF instrumentation based on the OpenTelemetry standard.
 Prior to version 0.9.0, OBI's replacement ELF parser trusts section offsets, counts, and string offsets
 from the executable file. A crafted local ELF can make OBI dereference invalid section pointers or slice
 past string tables, causing the agent to panic while determining the process language. This issue has been
 patched in version 0.9.0. (CVE-2026-45676)

Solution

Update the go.opentelemetry.io/obi library and its related packages to version 0.9.0 or later.
