SCA: security update for github.com/seaweedfs/seaweedfs (GHSA-87fv-vqqr-m4jr)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 445854

Description

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

- SeaweedFS is a distributed storage system. Prior to 4.24, VolumeServer.FetchAndWriteNeedle in
weed/server/volume_grpc_remote.go fetches a caller-supplied remote endpoint through
weed/remote_storage/s3/s3_storage_client.go and writes the response into a needle. The RPC performs no
authentication and no target validation, allowing anyone who can reach a volume server's gRPC port to
cause requests to arbitrary hosts, including loopback, link-local, RFC 1918, and cloud metadata endpoints
such as 169.254.169.254, and read the response. On cloud deployments, this can disclose instance metadata
and IAM credentials and reach otherwise unexposed internal services. The volume server gRPC plane is
unauthenticated by default, and configuring documented JWT signing keys does not protect this RPC. This
issue is fixed in version 4.24. (CVE-2026-73080)

Solution

Update the github.com/seaweedfs/seaweedfs library and its related packages to version 0.0.0-20260512171120-69da20bdaec9 or later.
