Echo: gdal: security update to 3.10.3+dfsg-1+e6

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 463212

Description

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

- In GDAL 3.1.0 through 3.13.0, scanForGeometryContainers in the netCDF driver allows code execution via a
stack-based buffer overflow. It reads a geometry attribute into a fixed-size stack buffer without
validating the attribute length. The attacker embeds the exploit as an oversized geometry attribute in a
crafted NetCDF file. This achieves arbitrary code execution on the server running GDAL. This is in
frmts/netcdf/netcdfsg.cpp. (CVE-2026-49014)

Solution

Update the gdal library and its related packages to version 3.10.3+dfsg-1+e6 or later.
