SCA: security update for org.opensearch.plugin:opensearch-security (GHSA-v3cg-7r9h-r2g6)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 419032

Description

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

- OpenSearch is an open source distributed and RESTful search engine. In affected versions there is an issue
in the implementation of field-level security (FLS) and field masking where rules written to explicitly
exclude fields are not correctly applied for certain queries that rely on their auto-generated .keyword
fields. This issue is only present for authenticated users with read access to the indexes containing the
restricted fields. This may expose data which may otherwise not be accessible to the user. OpenSearch
1.0.0-1.3.7 and 2.0.0-2.4.1 are affected. Users are advised to upgrade to OpenSearch 1.3.8 or 2.5.0. Users
unable to upgrade may write explicit exclusion rules as a workaround. Policies authored in this way are
not subject to this issue. (CVE-2023-23613)
