SCA: security update for github.com/gotenberg/gotenberg/v8 (GHSA-chwh-f6gm-r836)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 441640

Description

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

- Gotenberg is a Docker-powered stateless API for PDF files. Prior to 8.32.0, Gotenberg's Chromium URL-to-
PDF endpoint (/forms/chromium/convert/url) has no default protection against HTTP/HTTPS-based SSRF. The
default deny-list regex only blocks file:// URIs. An unauthenticated attacker can point Chromium at any
internal IP — including loopback, RFC 1918 ranges, and cloud metadata endpoints — and receive the response
rendered as a PDF. Additionally, even when operators configure a custom deny-list, the protection is
bypassed via HTTP redirects. Gotenberg's Chromium instance follows 302 redirects from an attacker-
controlled external URL to internal targets without re-validating the redirect destination against the
deny-list. This vulnerability is fixed in 8.32.0. (CVE-2026-42595)

Solution

Update the github.com/gotenberg/gotenberg/v8 library and its related packages to version 8.32.0 or later.
