Alpine: multiple libcue packages: security update to 2.2.1-r2

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 408078

Description

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

 - libcue provides an API for parsing and extracting data from CUE sheets. Versions 2.2.1 and prior are
 vulnerable to out-of-bounds array access. A user of the GNOME desktop environment can be exploited by
 downloading a cue sheet from a malicious webpage. Because the file is saved to `~/Downloads`, it is then
 automatically scanned by tracker-miners. And because it has a .cue filename extension, tracker-miners use
 libcue to parse the file. The file exploits the vulnerability in libcue to gain code execution. This issue
 is patched in version 2.3.0. (CVE-2023-43641)
