SCA: security update for github.com/caddyserver/caddy/v2 (GHSA-g7pc-pc7g-h8jh)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 437978

Description

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

 - Caddy is an extensible server platform that uses TLS by default. Prior to version 2.11.1, Caddy's HTTP
 `path` request matcher is intended to be case-insensitive, but when the match pattern contains percent-
 escape sequences (`%xx`) it compares against the request's escaped path without lowercasing. An attacker
 can bypass path-based routing and any access controls attached to that route by changing the casing of the
 request path. Version 2.11.1 contains a fix for the issue. (CVE-2026-27587)
