Description

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

 - Kopia is a cross-platform backup tool for Windows, macOS, and Linux with fast incremental backups, client-
 side end-to-end encryption, compression, and data deduplication. Prior to 0.23.0, Kopia's HTTP server
 started with --without-password accepts unauthenticated requests to /api/v1/repo/exists and forwards
 attacker-supplied SFTP storage configuration to blob.NewStorage, where externalSSH: true and sshArguments
 containing -oProxyCommand=<cmd> can cause exec.CommandContext("ssh") to invoke the command through
 OpenSSH. This issue is fixed in version 0.23.0. (CVE-2026-45695)
