Fix CVE-2024-45337: Update golang.org/x/crypto in statsd_exporter to >= v0.31.0

Part of https://github.com/stackabletech/docker-images/issues/xxx


Problem

The stackable/statsd_exporter image embedded in the Superset product image contains a CRITICAL vulnerability:

CVE Library Installed Fixed Severity
CVE-2024-45337 golang.org/x/crypto v0.27.0 v0.31.0 CRITICAL

Description: Misuse of ServerConfig.PublicKeyCallback may cause authorization bypass in golang.org/x/crypto/ssh. See: https://avd.aquasec.com/nvd/cve-2024-45337

This CVE is present in both:

  • oci.stackable.tech/sdp/superset:4.1.4-stackable26.3.0
  • oci.stackable.tech/sdp/superset:6.0.0-stackable26.3.0

The statsd_exporter binary is compiled with golang.org/x/crypto v0.27.0. The fix requires rebuilding the binary with golang.org/x/crypto >= v0.31.0.

Note: While statsd_exporter does not expose SSH functionality and the vulnerable PublicKeyCallback code path is not reachable at runtime, the vulnerability still triggers CRITICAL findings in standard security scanners (Trivy, Wiz, etc.), blocking internal compliance and image promotion pipelines.


  • Add: statsd_exporter built with golang.org/x/crypto >= v0.31.0
  • Remove: statsd_exporter built with golang.org/x/crypto v0.27.0

Tip

Please add the scheduled-for/YY.M.X label, and add to the Stackable Engineering project.

Update tasks

  • Update boil-config.toml to reflect the agreed upon versions in the spreadsheet (including the removal of old versions).
  • Create a new constraints file (see superset/README.md).
  • Create a file: superset/stackable/patches/x.y.z/.gitkeep, add patches if applicable.
  • Delete old constraint files and patch directories.
  • Update golang.org/x/crypto dependency in statsd_exporter to >= v0.31.0 and rebuild the binary.
  • Update other dependencies if applicable (e.g. python, auth_lib, cyclonedx-bom, etc).
  • Check other operators (getting_started / kuttl / supported-versions) for usage of the versions. Add the PR(s) to the list below.
  • Ensure prerequisites are up to date (required-external-components.adoc).
  • Update the version in demos. Add the PR(s) to the list below.

# Verify the CVE is resolved after rebuild
trivy image oci.stackable.tech/sdp/superset:x.y.z-stackable0.0.0-dev | grep CVE-2024-45337
# Should return no results

Standard image build and test

Where x.y.z is the new version added in this PR

boil build superset=x.y.z --strip-architecture --load
kind load docker-image oci.stackable.tech/sdp/superset:x.y.z-stackable0.0.0-dev
