Chainguard: verus: security update to 0.2026.10.18-r1

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478184

Description

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

- zip is a zip library for Rust that supports reading and writing simple ZIP files. From 5.1.0 until 9.0.0,
applications built with the legacy-zip feature can reserve output capacity from an attacker-controlled
ZIP64 uncompressed size before validating the compressed stream. The ShrinkDecoder path in
src/legacy/shrink.rs can panic with a capacity overflow during ZipArchive::extract, and the Reduce and
Implode decoders contain the same unbounded preallocation pattern. An unhandled panic can terminate an
archive-processing service. This issue is fixed in version 9.0.0. (CVE-2026-115907)

Solution

Update the verus library and its related packages to version 0.2026.10.18-r1 or later.
