SCA: security update for github.com/sigstore/gitsign (GHSA-xvrc-2wvh-49vc)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 420690

Description

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

 - Gitsign is software for keyless Git signing using Sigstore. In versions of gitsign starting with 0.6.0 and
 prior to 0.8.0, Rekor public keys were fetched via the Rekor API, instead of through the local TUF client.
 If the upstream Rekor server happened to be compromised, gitsign clients could potentially be tricked into
 trusting incorrect signatures. There is no known compromise the default public good instance
 (`rekor.sigstore.dev`) - anyone using this instance is unaffected. This issue was fixed in v0.8.0. No
 known workarounds are available. (CVE-2023-47122)
