SCA: security update for github.com/patrickhener/goshs/v2 (GHSA-rhf7-wvw3-vjvm)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 440779

Description

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

 - goshs is a SimpleHTTPServer written in Go. Prior to version 2.0.2, the PUT upload handler
 (httpserver/updown.go) lacks the CSRF token validation that was added to the POST upload handler during
 the CVE-2026-40883 fix. Combined with the unconditional Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * on the OPTIONS
 preflight handler (httpserver/server.go), any website can write arbitrary files to a goshs instance
 through the victim's browser — bypassing network isolation (e.g. localhost, internal network). This issue
 has been patched in version 2.0.2. (CVE-2026-42091)

Solution

Update the github.com/patrickhener/goshs/v2 library and its related packages to version 2.0.2 or later.
