SCA: security update for org.asynchttpclient:async-http-client (GHSA-v2j5-22fr-j62r)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473879

Description

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

 - The AsyncHttpClient (AHC) library allows Java applications to easily execute HTTP requests and
 asynchronously process HTTP responses. From 2.0.0 until 3.0.14, connection-pool partitioning still omits
 identity-defining fields for Kerberos, SPNEGO, NTLM, and authenticated proxy connections. Logins without a
 configured principal, proxy realms, identities sharing a user name, and SOCKS or CONNECT proxy logins can
 reuse a socket authenticated as a different identity. A later request is then executed under the first
 identity and can expose that identity's data or authority to another caller. In the affected execution
 path, SpnegoEngine, NTLM, Kerberos, SPNEGO, SOCKS, and CONNECT control or expose the vulnerable behavior.
 This issue is fixed in version 3.0.14. (CVE-2026-107230)

Solution

Update the org.asynchttpclient:async-http-client library and its related packages to version 3.0.14 or later.
