SCA: security update for github.com/gotenberg/gotenberg/v8 (GHSA-4vmc-gm8v-m35h)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 441447

Description

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

 - Gotenberg is a Docker-powered stateless API for PDF files. Prior to 8.31.0, the default deny-lists used by
 Gotenberg's downloadFrom feature and webhook feature are bypassable. Because the filter is regex-based and
 case-sensitive, an unauthenticated attacker can supply URLs such as http://[::ffff:127.0.0.1]:... and
 reach loopback or private HTTP services that the default deny-list is intended to block. This crosses a
 real security boundary because an external caller can force the server to make outbound requests to
 internal-only targets. This vulnerability is fixed in 8.31.0. (CVE-2026-42596)

Solution

Update the github.com/gotenberg/gotenberg/v8 library and its related packages to version 8.32.0 or later.
