openSUSE 16 Security Update : hauler (openSUSE-SU-2026:21793-1)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 343950

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote openSUSE 16 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2026:21793-1 advisory.

 Changes in hauler:

 - update to 2.1.0 (bsc#1265425, CVE-2026-41888):
 * `v2.1.0` is a **minor** release built on the containerd- native foundation laid down in `v2.0.0`. The headline is that `hauler store sync` and `hauler store add` are now fully concurrent, with signature verification pinned to digests and running in parallel too. Alongside that, this release adds an audit trail, a store integrity checker, store-to-manifest generation, private/insecure registry support across every pull path, and a set of fixes for containerd imports, chunked hauls, and Docker Hub reference handling.
 * **Notable dependency bumps:** Go **1.26.6**;
 `containerd/v2` 2.3.4; `sigstore/cosign/v3` 3.1.3;
 `sigstore/sigstore` 1.10.9; `go-containerregistry` 0.22.0; `helm/v4` 4.2.4; `k8s.io` libs (apimachinery, api, client-go) 0.37.0; `logrus` 1.10.2; `docker/go-metrics` 0.1.0; `sigstore/rekor` 1.5.4 (CVE resolution); plus `x/mod` and `go-isatty`.

 - update to 2.0.3 (bsc#1276124, CVE-2026-72817,CVE-2026-72815,CVE-2026-72816):
 * Bump k8s.io/apimachinery from 0.36.2 to 0.36.3 (backport #688)
 * Bump oras.land/oras-go/v2 from 2.6.1 to 2.6.2 in the go_modules group across 1 directory (backport #691)
 * fix for homebrew macOS binary quarantine (backport #690)
 * fix: process Helm deps before --add-images discovery (backport #703)
 * update hauler store remove to handle registry reference as part of string (backport #705)
 * fixed vuln for golang grpc

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
