SCA: security update for go.opentelemetry.io/obi (GHSA-j8p6-96vp-f3r9)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 442121

Description

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

 - OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation provides eBPF instrumentation based on the OpenTelemetry standard. From
 version 0.1.0 to before version 0.9.0, malformed MongoDB wire messages can trigger uncaught panics in the
 MongoDB TCP parser, allowing a remote unauthenticated attacker to crash the telemetry agent and cause a
 denial of service. The parser operates on raw attacker-controlled network payloads before the input is
 fully validated, so a single crafted message can terminate telemetry collection for the affected process
 or node. This issue has been patched in version 0.9.0. (CVE-2026-45685)

Solution

Update the go.opentelemetry.io/obi library and its related packages to version 0.9.0 or later.
