Alpine: erlang: security update to 26.2.5.12-r0

low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 427282

Description

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

 - Erlang/OTP is a set of libraries for the Erlang programming language. In versions prior to OTP-27.3.4 (for
 OTP-27), OTP-26.2.5.12 (for OTP-26), and OTP-25.3.2.21 (for OTP-25), Erlang/OTP SSH fails to enforce
 strict KEX handshake hardening measures by allowing optional messages to be exchanged. This allows a Man-
 in-the-Middle attacker to inject these messages in a connection during the handshake. This issue has been
 patched in versions OTP-27.3.4 (for OTP-27), OTP-26.2.5.12 (for OTP-26), and OTP-25.3.2.21 (for OTP-25).
