medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 428698

Description

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

 - MaterialX is an open standard for the exchange of rich material and look-development content across
 applications and renderers. In versions 1.39.2 and below, when parsing an MTLX file with multiple nested
 nodegraph implementations, the MaterialX XML parsing logic can potentially crash due to stack exhaustion.
 An attacker could intentionally crash a target program that uses OpenEXR by sending a malicious MTLX file.

Solution

Update the MaterialX library and its related packages to version 1.39.3 or later.
