low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 431703

Description

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

- A vulnerability exists in the NodeRestriction admission controller where nodes can bypass dynamic resource
allocation authorization checks. When the DynamicResourceAllocation feature gate is enabled, the
controller properly validates resource claim statuses during pod status updates but fails to perform
equivalent validation during pod creation. This allows a compromised node to create mirror pods that
access unauthorized dynamic resources, potentially leading to privilege escalation. (CVE-2025-4563)
