SCA: security update for io.kroxylicious:kroxylicious-runtime (GHSA-h83p-72jv-g7vp)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 415582

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - A flaw was found in Kroxylicious. When establishing the connection with the upstream Kafka server using a
 TLS secured connection, Kroxylicious fails to properly verify the server's hostname, resulting in an
 insecure connection. For a successful attack to be performed, the attacker needs to perform a Man-in-the-
 Middle attack or compromise any external systems, such as DNS or network routing configuration. This issue
 is considered a high complexity attack, with additional high privileges required, as the attack would need
 access to the Kroxylicious configuration or a peer system. The result of a successful attack impacts both
 data integrity and confidentiality. (CVE-2024-8285)
