SCA: security update for github.com/dgraph-io/dgraph/v25 (GHSA-qj98-gp63-54xj)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 474686

Description

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

 - Dgraph is an open source distributed GraphQL database. Prior to 25.4.0, Dgraph Zero registers
 administrative HTTP routes on port 6080 without authentication when the administrative interface is
 enabled. The /removeNode route accepts attacker-controlled id and group values and passes them to
 Server.RemoveNode, where group 0 can trigger ProposePeerRemoval. A remote unauthenticated attacker who can
 reach the Zero HTTP port can read topology through /state, allocate identifiers through /assign, access
 the exposed /moveTablet administrative route, or remove membership through /removeNode, disrupting the
 Zero control plane and destabilizing Alpha nodes that depend on Zero. The route registration occurs in
 dgraph/cmd/zero/run.go, and the demonstrated membership-removal path reaches Server.RemoveNode and
 ProposePeerRemoval. This issue is fixed in version 25.4.0. (CVE-2026-102748)

Solution

Update the github.com/dgraph-io/dgraph/v25 library and its related packages to version 25.4.0 or later.
