SCA: security update for io.netty:netty-codec-http (GHSA-hh82-3pmq-7frp)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 415754

Description

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

 - Netty project is an event-driven asynchronous network application framework. Starting in version
 4.1.83.Final and prior to 4.1.86.Final, when calling `DefaultHttpHeadesr.set` with an _iterator_ of
 values, header value validation was not performed, allowing malicious header values in the iterator to
 perform HTTP Response Splitting. This issue has been patched in version 4.1.86.Final. Integrators can work
 around the issue by changing the `DefaultHttpHeaders.set(CharSequence, Iterator<?>)` call, into a
 `remove()` call, and call `add()` in a loop over the iterator of values. (CVE-2022-41915)
