SCA: security update for github.com/getkin/kin-openapi (GHSA-vrcc-3ch7-hppw)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 474701

Description

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

 - kin-openapi is a Go project for handling OpenAPI files. From 0.136.0 until 0.149.0, three openapi3filter
 decoder paths that were missed by the fix for GHSA-p6wj-qrr4-pgh5 lack a nil-items guard for legal OpenAPI
 3.1 array schemas. An unauthenticated remote client can trigger a deterministic nil-pointer panic through
 an array query parameter, a deepObject query parameter containing an array property, or an
 application/x-www-form-urlencoded request body whose array property appears inside an allOf, anyOf, or
 oneOf subschema. The query and composed-body paths reach urlValuesDecoder.parseArray, while the deepObject
 path reaches buildResObj, and all pass a nil items schema into code that dereferences it. This issue is
 fixed in version 0.149.0. (CVE-2026-100353)

Solution

Update the github.com/getkin/kin-openapi library and its related packages to version 0.149.0 or later.
