Alpine: multiple libproxy packages: security update to 0.4.15-r8

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 405241

Description

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

- url::recvline in url.cpp in libproxy 0.4.x through 0.4.15 allows a remote HTTP server to trigger
uncontrolled recursion via a response composed of an infinite stream that lacks a newline character. This
leads to stack exhaustion. (CVE-2020-25219)

- url.cpp in libproxy through 0.4.15 is prone to a buffer overflow when PAC is enabled, as demonstrated by a
large PAC file that is delivered without a Content-length header. (CVE-2020-26154)
