SCA: security update for org.eclipse.edc:connector-core (GHSA-2x52-8f29-7cjr)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 409154

Description

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

 - In Eclipse Dataspace Components from version 0.2.1 to 0.6.2, in the EDC Connector component (
 https://github.com/eclipse-edc/Connector ), an attacker might obtain OAuth2 client secrets from the vault.
 In Eclipse Dataspace Components from version 0.2.1 to 0.6.2, we have identified a security vulnerability
 in the EDC Connector component ( https://github.com/eclipse-edc/Connector ) regarding the OAuth2-protected
 data sink feature. When using a custom, OAuth2-protected data sink, the OAuth2-specific data address
 properties are resolved by the provider data plane. Problematically, the consumer-provided
 clientSecretKey, which indicates the OAuth2 client secret to retrieve from a secrets vault, is resolved in
 the context of the provider's vault, not the consumer. This secret's value is then sent to the tokenUrl,
 also consumer-controlled, as part of an OAuth2 client credentials grant. The returned access token is then
 sent as a bearer token to the data sink URL. This feature is now disabled entirely, because not all code
 paths necessary for a successful realization were fully implemented. (CVE-2024-4536)
