Research direction

Start with the attached cuda-12-9-1.json and the referenced nvcr.io/nvidia/cuda:12.9.1-base-ubi9 image, then verify whether cuda-samples owns the affected glibc package or image build. Done means the relevant upcoming image no longer reports the stated glibc vulnerability, with the ownership and verification path documented.
