SCA: security update for org.xerial.snappy:snappy-java (GHSA-pqr6-cmr2-h8hf)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 417671

Description

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

 - snappy-java is a fast compressor/decompressor for Java. Due to unchecked multiplications, an integer
 overflow may occur in versions prior to 1.1.10.1, causing a fatal error. The function `shuffle(int[]
 input)` in the file `BitShuffle.java` receives an array of integers and applies a bit shuffle on it. It
 does so by multiplying the length by 4 and passing it to the natively compiled shuffle function. Since the
 length is not tested, the multiplication by four can cause an integer overflow and become a smaller value
 than the true size, or even zero or negative. In the case of a negative value, a
 `java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException` exception will raise, which can crash the program. In a case of a
 value that is zero or too small, the code that afterwards references the shuffled array will assume a
 bigger size of the array, which might cause exceptions such as `java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException`.
 The same issue exists also when using the `shuffle` functions that receive a double, float, long and
 short, each using a different multiplier that may cause the same issue. Version 1.1.10.1 contains a patch
 for this vulnerability. (CVE-2023-34453)
