SCA: security update for github.com/tektoncd/pipeline (GHSA-j5q5-j9gm-2w5c)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438967

Description

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

 - Tekton Pipelines project provides k8s-style resources for declaring CI/CD-style pipelines. Starting in
 version 1.0.0 and prior to versions 1.0.1, 1.3.3, 1.6.1, 1.9.2, and 1.10.2, the Tekton Pipelines git
 resolver is vulnerable to path traversal via the `pathInRepo` parameter. A tenant with permission to
 create `ResolutionRequests` (e.g. by creating `TaskRuns` or `PipelineRuns` that use the git resolver) can
 read arbitrary files from the resolver pod's filesystem, including ServiceAccount tokens. The file
 contents are returned base64-encoded in `resolutionrequest.status.data`. Versions 1.0.1, 1.3.3, 1.6.1,
 1.9.2, and 1.10.2 contain a patch. (CVE-2026-33211)

Solution

Update the github.com/tektoncd/pipeline library and its related packages to version 1.0.1 or later.
