high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443049

Description

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

- CometD is a scalable comet implementation for web messaging. In versions 5.0.0 through 5.0.22, 6.0.0
through 6.0.18, 7.0.0 through 7.0.18, and 8.0.0 through 8.0.8, bad clients that always send a fixed batch
value when the server is using the acknowledgement extension may cause the unacknowledged message queue to
grow indefinitely, eventually causing an `OutOfMemoryError`. Versions 5.0.23, 6.0.19, 7.0.19, and 8.0.9
patch the issue. As a workaround, disable the acknowledgement extension. (CVE-2025-53114)
