SCA: security update for io.strimzi:strimzi (GHSA-r427-j2h7-wv3m)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443513

Description

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

 - Strimzi provides a way to run an Apache Kafka cluster on Kubernetes or OpenShift in various deployment
 configurations. In Strimzi 1.0.0 and earlier, deploying only the Topic Operator or only the User Operator
 through the Kafka custom resource leaves the Entity Operator ServiceAccount with RBAC permissions for both
 components. The excess permissions can allow access to KafkaUser custom resources and Secrets when the
 User Operator is absent, or access to KafkaTopic custom resources when the Topic Operator is absent. This
 issue is fixed in versions 1.0.1 and 1.1.0. (CVE-2026-55226)

Solution

Update the io.strimzi:strimzi library and its related packages to version 1.0.1 or later.
