medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443601

Description

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

 - OpenFGA is an authorization/permission engine built for developers. Prior to 1.18.0, OpenFGA's OIDC
 authenticator skipped JWT audience validation when authn.method was set to oidc, authn.oidc.issuer was
 configured, and authn.oidc.audience was not set, allowing a token minted for an unrelated service by the
 same identity provider to authenticate to OpenFGA. This issue is fixed in 1.18.0. (CVE-2026-55689)

Solution

Update the github.com/openfga/openfga library and its related packages to version 1.18.0 or later.
