Chainguard: verus: security update to 0.2026.10.18-r1

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478191

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 0.6.0 until 9.0.0,
 the AES entry reader in src/aes.rs verifies its HMAC only when the attacker-controlled data counter
 reaches zero. If the underlying bounded reader reaches the real end of the archive while data_remaining is
 still positive, or if an encrypted entry has no payload, the reader can return a clean end of stream
 without reading and comparing the authentication tag. Applications using by_index_decrypt,
 by_name_decrypt, by_path_decrypt, or password-enabled by_index_with_options can therefore accept modified
 plaintext without an authentication error. This issue is fixed in version 9.0.0. (CVE-2026-115906)

Solution

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