SCA: security update for github.com/go-resty/resty/v2 (GHSA-xwh9-gc39-5298)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 421532

Description

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

 - A race condition in go-resty can result in HTTP request body disclosure across requests. This condition
 can be triggered by calling sync.Pool.Put with the same *bytes.Buffer more than once, when request retries
 are enabled and a retry occurs. The call to sync.Pool.Get will then return a bytes.Buffer that hasn't had
 bytes.Buffer.Reset called on it. This dirty buffer will contain the HTTP request body from an unrelated
 request, and go-resty will append the current HTTP request body to it, sending two bodies in one request.
 The sync.Pool in question is defined at package level scope, so a completely unrelated server could
 receive the request body. (CVE-2023-45286)
