Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2025-0495

medium Nessus Plugin ID 251251

Language:

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

 - Buildx is a Docker CLI plugin that extends build capabilities using BuildKit. Cache backends support credentials by setting secrets directly as attribute values in cache-to/cache-from configuration. When supplied as user input, these secure values may be inadvertently captured in OpenTelemetry traces as part of the arguments and flags for the traced CLI command. OpenTelemetry traces are also saved in BuildKit daemon's history records. This vulnerability does not impact secrets passed to the Github cache backend via environment variables or registry authentication. (CVE-2025-0495)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
