SCA: security update for go.opentelemetry.io/obi (GHSA-8rrq-wcg8-cv5q)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 442035

Description

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

 - OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation provides eBPF instrumentation based on the OpenTelemetry standard.
 Prior to version 0.9.0, OBI exports raw Redis error text as the span status message. Because Redis error
 replies can contain attacker-controlled or sensitive values, this behavior can exfiltrate tokens, PII, or
 other confidential input into telemetry backends and inject untrusted text into downstream analysis
 systems. This issue has been patched in version 0.9.0. (CVE-2026-45679)

Solution

Update the go.opentelemetry.io/obi library and its related packages to version 0.9.0 or later.
