SCA: security update for github.com/labstack/echo/v5 (GHSA-pgvm-wxw2-hrv9)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 437773

Description

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

 - Echo is a Go web framework. In versions 5.0.0 through 5.0.2 on Windows, Echo’s `middleware.Static` using
 the default filesystem allows path traversal via backslashes, enabling unauthenticated remote file read
 outside the static root. In `middleware/static.go`, the requested path is unescaped and normalized with
 `path.Clean` (URL semantics). `path.Clean` does not treat `\` as a path separator, so `..\` sequences
 remain in the cleaned path. The resulting path is then passed to `currentFS.Open(...)`. When the
 filesystem is left at the default (nil), Echo uses `defaultFS` which calls `os.Open` (`echo.go:792`). On
 Windows, `os.Open` treats `\` as a path separator and resolves `..\`, allowing traversal outside the
 static root. Version 5.0.3 fixes the issue. (CVE-2026-25766)
