SCA: security update for io.netty.incubator:netty-incubator-codec-ohttp (GHSA-g762-h86w-8749)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 414952

Description

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

 - netty-incubator-codec-ohttp is the OHTTP implementation for netty. BoringSSLAEADContext keeps track of how
 many OHTTP responses have been sent and uses this sequence number to calculate the appropriate nonce to
 use with the encryption algorithm. Unfortunately, two separate errors combine which would allow an
 attacker to cause the sequence number to overflow and thus the nonce to repeat. (CVE-2024-36121)
