medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 450456

Description

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

- D-Bus before 1.15.6 sometimes allows unprivileged users to crash dbus-daemon. If a privileged user with
control over the dbus-daemon is using the org.freedesktop.DBus.Monitoring interface to monitor message bus
traffic, then an unprivileged user with the ability to connect to the same dbus-daemon can cause a dbus-
daemon crash under some circumstances via an unreplyable message. When done on the well-known system bus,
this is a denial-of-service vulnerability. The fixed versions are 1.12.28, 1.14.8, and 1.15.6.
(CVE-2023-34969)
