Hi,

Are the default modules receiving security update?

Security tools (Tenable) want me to update PHP to 7.4 claiming
7.2.24-1.module_el8.2.0+313+b04d0a66 has several vulnerabilities per
CESA-2021:4213, CESA-2022:1935.

Same with containers-common. Tenable wants 1.2.4-1.module_el8.6.0 rather
than 1-23.module_el8.7.0+1106+45480ee0 even though both have the same
2022-03-16 date in the repo. (CESA-2022:1793, CESA-2022:2143).

I don't find any centos-announce email mentioning the above CESA. Are the
updates for the modules published separately? Where can I find them?

If your security tool is looking for a NAME-VERSION-RELEASE of a RHEL 
package that is part of a module, this will always fail on a CentOS system.

Generally speaking, yes.

CentOS does not publish CVE metadata.

If you are a RHEL customer, we have a suite of approved security
scanners that understand how to use the CVE metadata published as part
of RHEL.  I don't know if Tenable is in that set, but often we find
many scanners do not understand that most CVE fixes in CentOS Stream
and RHEL are managed via backports instead of version bumps or they
don't know how to handle the metadata we publish.
