Chainguard: gradle-8: security update to 8.14.4-r0

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 476294

Description

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

- Gradle is a build automation tool, and its native-platform tool provides Java bindings for native APIs.
When resolving dependencies in versions before 9.3.0, some exceptions were not treated as fatal errors and
would not cause a repository to be disabled. If a build encountered one of these exceptions, Gradle would
continue to the next repository in the list and potentially resolve dependencies from a different
repository. An exception like NoHttpResponseException can indicate transient errors. If the errors persist
after a maximum number of retries, Gradle would continue to the next repository. This behavior could allow
an attacker to disrupt the service of a repository and leverage another repository to serve malicious
artifacts. This attack requires the attacker to have control over a repository after the disrupted
repository. Gradle has introduced a change in behavior in Gradle 9.3.0 to stop searching other
repositories when encountering these errors. (CVE-2026-22865)

Solution

Update the gradle-8 library and its related packages to version 8.14.4-r0 or later.
