medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438960

Description

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

 - A flaw was found in the Katello plugin for Red Hat Satellite. This vulnerability, caused by improper
 sanitization of user-provided input, allows a remote attacker to inject arbitrary SQL commands into the
 sort_by parameter of the /api/hosts/bootc_images API endpoint. This can lead to a Denial of Service (DoS)
 by triggering database errors, and potentially enable Boolean-based Blind SQL injection, which could allow
 an attacker to extract sensitive information from the database. (CVE-2026-4324)

Solution

Update the katello library and its related packages to version 4.19.1 or later.
