critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 446221

Description

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

 - GeoTools is an open source Java library that provides tools for geospatial data. Starting in version 30.5
 and prior to versions 33.6, 34.5, and 33.6, an SQL Injection Vulnerability is present when executing OGC
 Filters with PostGIS DataStore implementation: `jsonArrayContains` function; Requires PostGIS 12 or
 greater with a String or JSON field. For PostGIS 12 and greater `jsonArrayContains(<column>, <pointer>,
 <value>)` function writes `<value>` into generated SQL without escaping. Patches are available in versions
 33.6, 34.5, and 33.6. No known workaround is available. To limit scope of SQL Injection the PostGIS
