SCA: security update for github.com/open-feature/open-feature-operator (GHSA-cwf6-xj49-wp83)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 414135

Description

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

 - The OpenFeature Operator allows users to expose feature flags to applications. Assuming the pre-existence
 of a vulnerability that allows for arbitrary code execution, an attacker could leverage the lax
 permissions configured on `open-feature-operator-controller-manager` to escalate the privileges of any SA
 in the cluster. The increased privileges could be used to modify cluster state, leading to DoS, or read
 sensitive data, including secrets. Version 0.2.32 mitigates this issue by restricting the resources the
 `open-feature-operator-controller-manager` can modify. (CVE-2023-29018)
