Echo: google.golang.org/grpc: security update to 1.83.1rancher-2.13: security update to 2.13.9+e5

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 462851

Description

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

- gRPC-Go is the Go language implementation of gRPC. Prior to 1.83.1, internal/transport/transport.go stores
each fragmented HTTP/2 DATA frame as a separate recvMsg in recvBuffer, so millions of one-byte frames can
consume disproportionate heap memory even when payload bytes remain within connection and stream flow-
control windows. An unauthenticated remote attacker can use concurrent multiplexed streams to exhaust
process memory and cause a runtime panic or out-of-memory termination. Receive-buffer compaction is
enabled by default and can be controlled temporarily with
GRPC_GO_EXPERIMENTAL_ENABLE_RECEIVE_BUFFER_COMPACTION. This issue is fixed in version 1.83.1.
(CVE-2026-84304)

Solution

Update the google.golang.org/grpc library and its related packages to version 1.83.1 or later.
