SCA: security update for github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2 (GHSA-qx2q-88mx-vhg7)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 431699

Description

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

- Fiber is an Express inspired web framework written in Go. In versions 2.52.8 and below, when using Fiber's
Ctx.BodyParser to parse form data containing a large numeric key that represents a slice index (e.g.,
test.18446744073704), the application crashes due to an out-of-bounds slice allocation in the underlying
schema decoder. The root cause is that the decoder attempts to allocate a slice of length idx + 1 without
validating whether the index is within a safe or reasonable range. If the idx is excessively large, this
leads to an integer overflow or memory exhaustion, causing a panic or crash. This is fixed in version
2.52.9. (CVE-2025-54801)
