Echo: hono: security update to 4.12.34

low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 464739

Description

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

- Hono is a Web application framework that provides support for any JavaScript runtime. From 4.7.0 to
4.12.33, the Proxy Helper proxy() function in hono/proxy does not remove response headers named by the
origin's Connection header. Per RFC 9110 Section 7.6.1, an intermediary must remove the header fields
listed in a message's Connection header field before forwarding the message, in addition to the well known
hop by hop headers, but the proxy() function only removed the well known hop by hop headers, including
Connection itself, from origin responses. A client may therefore receive response headers that the origin
intended only for its immediate peer, disclosing connection scoped or internal metadata contained in such
headers, when an application proxies responses from an origin that declares additional, non standard
headers as hop by hop via the Connection response header. This issue is fixed in version 4.12.34.
(CVE-2026-71849)

Solution

Update the hono library and its related packages to version 4.12.34 or later.
