SCA: security update for github.com/zitadel/zitadel (GHSA-rxvx-hhpj-q6px)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 441534

Description

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

- ZITADEL is an open source identity management platform. From 2.71.11 to before 3.4.10 and 4.15.0, a
vulnerability was discovered in Zitadel's LDAP identity provider implementation, which fails to properly
escape user-provided usernames before incorporating them into LDAP search filters. This allows
unauthenticated attackers to perform LDAP Filter Injection during the login process. While this
vulnerability does not allow for a full authentication bypass, an attacker can use LDAP metacharacters
(such as *, (, )) to perform blind LDAP injection. By observing the different failure (or success)
responses, an attacker can systematically enumerate valid usernames and extract sensitive attribute data
from the connected LDAP directory. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.4.10 and 4.15.0. (CVE-2026-44671)

Solution

Update the github.com/zitadel/zitadel library and its related packages to version 3.4.10 or later.
