SCA: security update for org.asynchttpclient:async-http-client (GHSA-p2jm-6hj6-9rjg)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473866

Description

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

 - The AsyncHttpClient (AHC) library allows Java applications to easily execute HTTP requests and
 asynchronously process HTTP responses. From 2.1.0 until 3.0.14, the default ThreadSafeCookieStore does not
 retain whether a Set-Cookie response used a secure transport. It accepts Secure cookies received over
 plaintext and permits insecure cookies to overlay or delete existing Secure cookies with matching scope.
 An attacker controlling a plaintext same-site response can consequently plant, replace, or remove cookie
 state later sent to an HTTPS origin, enabling session fixation, CSRF-token replacement, or loss of
 security-relevant state. This issue is fixed in version 3.0.14. (CVE-2026-107226)

Solution

Update the org.asynchttpclient:async-http-client library and its related packages to version 3.0.14 or later.
