SCA: security update for github.com/labstack/echo/v4, github.com/labstack/echo/v5 (GHSA-375p-5qhx-8wq4)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 477846

Description

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

- Echo is a Go web framework. Prior to 4.16.0 and 5.4.0, a globally mounted middleware.Static instance can
interpret an encoded request path differently from Echo's router because the router matches the still-
encoded path while the static handler uses the decoded URL.Path. The advisory demonstrates an encoded
slash resolving to a file under the static root through the global static middleware, but the source is
internally inconsistent about whether a route or group guard protects the corresponding literal path in
that global-mount configuration. This issue is fixed in 4.16.0 and 5.4.0. (CVE-2026-118650)

Solution

Update the github.com/labstack/echo/v4 library and its related packages to version 4.16.0 or later.
