SCA: security update for github.com/kyverno/kyverno (GHSA-jrr2-x33p-6hvc)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 434642

Description

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

 - Kyverno is a policy engine designed for cloud native platform engineering teams. Prior to versions 1.13.5
 and 1.14.0, it may happen that policy rules using namespace selector(s) in their match statements are
 mistakenly not applied during admission review request processing due to a missing error propagation in
 function `GetNamespaceSelectorsFromNamespaceLister` in `pkg/utils/engine/labels.go`. As a consequence,
 security-critical mutations and validations are bypassed, potentially allowing attackers with K8s API
 access to perform malicious operations. This issue has been patched in versions 1.13.5 and 1.14.0.
 (CVE-2025-46342)
