SCA: security update for github.com/filecoin-project/go-f3 (GHSA-7pq9-rf9p-wcrf)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 435458

Description

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

- go-f3 is a Golang implementation of Fast Finality for Filecoin (F3). In versions 0.8.8 and below, go-f3's
justification verification caching mechanism has a vulnerability where verification results are cached
without properly considering the context of the message. An attacker can bypass justification verification
by submitting a valid message with a correct justification and then reusing the same cached justification
in contexts where it would normally be invalid. This occurs because the cached verification does not
properly validate the relationship between the justification and the specific message context it's being
used with. This issue is fixed in version 0.8.9. (CVE-2025-59941)
