Description

ZITADEL Go's GRPC example code vulnerability - GO-2024-2687 HTTP/2 CONTINUATION flood in net/http

Summary

Applications using the zitadel-go v3 library (next branch) might be impacted by package vulnerabilities.

The output of govulncheck suggests that only example code seems to be impacted, based on 1 of the 3 potential vulnerabilities. This vulnerability is located in the transitive dependency golang.org/x/net v0.19.0, [CVE-2023-45288](https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-45288)

Patches

3.0.0-next versions are fixed on >= [3.0.0-next.3](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-go/releases/tag/v3.0.0-next.3)

ZITADEL recommends upgrading to the latest versions available in due course.

Workarounds

If updating the zitadel-go library is not an option, updating the affected (transient) dependencies works as a workaround.
