SCA: security update for github.com/labstack/echo/v5 (GHSA-x9ff-22gv-65f4)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 477260

Description

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

 - Echo is a Go web framework. From 5.0.0 until 5.4.1, Echo v5's BodyDump middleware can discard a BodyLimit
 overflow error for an unknown-length request when BodyDump's capture limit is below the BodyLimit
 threshold. BodyDump drains the remaining body while ignoring read errors and replaces it with the captured
 prefix, so an HTTP/1.1 chunked request can be truncated and processed successfully even though the
 original body exceeded the configured limit. Known-length requests rejected before BodyDump runs are
 unaffected, and the issue does not establish a general authentication bypass or denial of service. This
 issue is fixed in 5.4.1. (CVE-2026-118263)

Solution

Update the github.com/labstack/echo/v5 library and its related packages to version 5.4.1 or later.
