SCA: security update for github.com/forgekeep/nebula-mesh (GHSA-m3cx-mwpg-32jg)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 444721

Description

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

- nebula-mesh is a self-hosted control plane for Slack Nebula mesh VPN. From version 0.2.0 to before version
0.5.0, when OIDC is enabled, GET /ui/oidc/login is reachable without authentication and is registered
outside the Web UI rate-limited auth routes. Every request creates a fresh random OIDC state value and
stores it in an in-memory map for 10m. Expired states are swept lazily, but there is no rate limit or
maximum live-state cap on the allocation path. An unauthenticated remote client can therefore grow
OIDC.states for the full state TTL, bounded by request throughput rather than by configured auth rate
limits. This issue has been patched in version 0.5.0. (CVE-2026-55512)

Solution

Update the github.com/forgekeep/nebula-mesh library and its related packages to version 0.5.0 or later.
