Upgrade github.com/snapcore/snapd/interfaces/builtin to version 2.57.6 or higher.
Overview
github.com/snapcore/snapd/interfaces/builtin is a tool enabling systems to work with .snap files
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in snap-confine that allows low-privileged users to obtain root privileges by forcing a malicious mount. Attackers who have compromised another system process such as multipathd can abuse the rename() operation's use of the shared /tmp directory when initializing a mount to achieve root privileges.
