high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 447919

Description

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

- Traefik is an open source HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. From 2.11.26 until 2.11.57 and 3.7.13,
Traefik forwards a client-supplied Connection header requesting Upgrade, the Upgrade: h2c token, and
HTTP2-Settings to a shared backend. If the backend accepts h2c and returns 101 Switching Protocols,
Traefik enters a raw tunnel and no longer applies routers, BasicAuth, ForwardAuth, IPAllowList, RateLimit,
access logging, metrics, or tracing to later HTTP/2 requests, allowing an unauthenticated request through
an unprotected route to reach protected paths on the same backend. This issue is fixed in 2.11.57 and
3.7.13. (CVE-2026-88008)

Solution

Update the github.com/traefik/traefik/v2 library and its related packages to version 2.11.57 or later.
