Echo: jq: security update to 1.7.1-6+deb13u2+e4

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 460060

Description

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

- jq is a command-line JSON processor. In 1.8.1 and earlier, jq accepts embedded NUL bytes in import paths
at the jq-language level, but later resolves those paths through C string operations during module and
data-file lookup. This creates a mismatch between the logical import string that policy or audit code may
validate and the on-disk path that jq actually opens. (CVE-2026-43895)

Solution

Update the jq library and its related packages to version 1.7.1-6+deb13u2+e4 or later.
