Alpine: synapse: security update to 1.152.1-r0

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 442235

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- Synapse is an open source Matrix homeserver implementation. Prior to 1.152.1, in federated rooms,
malicious homeservers can craft room events in such a way that prevents Synapse from providing full
history to paginating clients. Clients could therefore fail to display room history. This vulnerability is
fixed in 1.152.1. (CVE-2026-45076)

- Synapse is an open source Matrix homeserver implementation. Prior to 1.152.1, local authenticated users
can cause Synapse to starve other requests of CPU and lead to other requests failing, causing other users
to be denied service. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.152.1. (CVE-2026-45078)

Solution

Update the synapse library and its related packages to version 1.152.1-r0 or later.
