medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 416411

Description

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

- Wings is the control plane software for the open source Pterodactyl game management system. All versions
of Pterodactyl Wings prior to `1.4.4` are vulnerable to system resource exhaustion due to improper
container process limits being defined. A malicious user can consume more resources than intended and
cause downstream impacts to other clients on the same hardware, eventually causing the physical server to
stop responding. Users should upgrade to `1.4.4` to mitigate the issue. There is no non-code based
workaround for impacted versions of the software. Users running customized versions of this software can
manually set a PID limit for containers created. (CVE-2021-32699)
