Golang: stdlib: security update to 1.21.8stdlib: security update to 1.22.1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 428489

Description

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

- When parsing a multipart form (either explicitly with Request.ParseMultipartForm or implicitly with
Request.FormValue, Request.PostFormValue, or Request.FormFile), limits on the total size of the parsed
form were not applied to the memory consumed while reading a single form line. This permits a maliciously
crafted input containing very long lines to cause allocation of arbitrarily large amounts of memory,
potentially leading to memory exhaustion. With fix, the ParseMultipartForm function now correctly limits
the maximum size of form lines. (CVE-2023-45290)
