SCA: security update for io.crate:crate (GHSA-2xv8-gjwh-fv8p)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 444263

Description

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

 - CrateDB is a distributed SQL database. Prior to versions 6.2.8 and 6.3.2, any authenticated user can read
 or delete any blob whose SHA-1 digest they know, and can plant new blobs unconditionally, in any blob
 table, regardless of `GRANT`s. CrateDB has two ways to access blob storage: SQL (`SELECT ... FROM
 blob.<table>` and friends) and the blob HTTP API (`GET|PUT|DELETE /_blobs/{table}/{digest}`). The SQL path
 goes through `AccessControl`, which is what enforces privilege grants; that's why `SELECT digest FROM
 blob.secret_blobs` fails for a user who has no grants on the table. The HTTP path authenticates the
 request but never asks `AccessControl` whether the authenticated user is allowed to touch the table. So a
 user with no grants gets `MissingPrivilegeException` from SQL and `200 OK` plus the blob bytes from `GET
 /_blobs/secret_blobs/<digest>`. Deployments that don't use `BLOB TABLE` are unaffected. Authentication
 itself still works; the bug is strictly that being authenticated as anyone is treated as sufficient for
 any blob op. Versions 6.2.8 and 6.3.2 fix the issue. (CVE-2026-49989)

Solution

Update the io.crate:crate library and its related packages to version 6.2.8 or later.
