SCA: security update for org.hyperledger.fabric-chaincode-java:fabric-chaincode-shim (GHSA-wg5x-3g47-v38r)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 442150

Description

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

- fabric-chaincode-java is a Java based implementation of Hyperledger Fabric chaincode shim APIs. From
version 2.3.1 to before version 2.5.10, when chaincode is deployed in chaincode-as-a-service mode with TLS
enabled, the chaincode server INFO level logging includes the TLS private key password in plaintext. An
attacker with access to the chaincode server logs could recover the TLS private key password. If the
attacker can also obtain the TLS private key, they could impersonate the chaincode server. This issue has
been patched in version 2.5.10. (CVE-2026-45581)

Solution

Update the org.hyperledger.fabric-chaincode-java:fabric-chaincode-shim library and its related packages to version 2.5.10 or later.
