Alpine: multiple go packages: security update to 1.20.8-r0

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 404783

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- The html/template package does not properly handle HTML-like "" comment tokens, nor hashbang "#!" comment
tokens, in <script> contexts. This may cause the template parser to improperly interpret the contents of
<script> contexts, causing actions to be improperly escaped. This may be leveraged to perform an XSS
attack. (CVE-2023-39318)

- The html/template package does not apply the proper rules for handling occurrences of "<script", "<!--",
and "</script" within JS literals in <script> contexts. This may cause the template parser to improperly
consider script contexts to be terminated early, causing actions to be improperly escaped. This could be
leveraged to perform an XSS attack. (CVE-2023-39319)

- Processing an incomplete post-handshake message for a QUIC connection can cause a panic. (CVE-2023-39321)

- QUIC connections do not set an upper bound on the amount of data buffered when reading post-handshake
messages, allowing a malicious QUIC connection to cause unbounded memory growth. With fix, connections now
consistently reject messages larger than 65KiB in size. (CVE-2023-39322)
