||
## Remediation Plan
|
||
|
||
### Step 1: Update Direct Dependencies
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cd /projects/Charon/backend
|
||
|
||
# Update crypto (CRITICAL)
|
||
go get -u golang.org/x/crypto@latest
|
||
|
||
# Update net
|
||
go get -u golang.org/x/net@latest
|
||
|
||
# Update oauth2
|
||
go get -u golang.org/x/oauth2@latest
|
||
|
||
# Update quic-go
|
||
go get -u github.com/quic-go/quic-go@latest
|
||
|
||
# Clean up
|
||
go mod tidy
|
||
go mod verify
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 2: Verify Updates
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Check updated versions
|
||
go list -u -m all | grep -E "x/crypto|x/net|x/oauth2|quic-go"
|
||
|
||
# List all vulnerabilities
|
||
go list -json -m all | go-vuln-check 2>/dev/null || echo "Install go-vuln-check for detailed report"
|
||
|
||
# Re-run Trivy
|
||
trivy fs . --severity CRITICAL,HIGH --format sarif -o /tmp/trivy-post-update.sarif
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 3: Build & Test
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Rebuild container
|
||
docker build -t charon:local .
|
||
|
||
# Run tests
|
||
npx playwright test tests/core tests/settings tests/tasks tests/monitoring
|
||
|
||
# Container scan
|
||
trivy image charon:local --severity CRITICAL,HIGH
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 4: Commit & Deploy
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git add go.mod go.sum
|
||
git commit -m "chore: update dependencies to fix CVE-2024-45337 and related security issues"
|
||
git push
|
||
```

**CSRF Protection:** ✅ Token validation in place
|
||
**Authentication:** ✅ Proper session management
|
||
**Authorization:** ✅ Role-based access control enforced
|
||
|
||
**Conclusion:** No vulnerabilities found in application logic
|

|
||
|
||
## Dependency Risk Assessment
|
||
|
||
### Why These CVEs Matter
|
||
|
||
1. **SSH Authentication** (CVE-2024-45337, CVE-2025-22869)
|
||
- Risk: Reverse proxy manages SSH connectivity
|
||
- Impact: Potential auth bypass if SSH is enabled
|
||
- Likelihood: Medium (depends on SSH configuration)
|
||
|
||
2. **HTTP/2 Attacks** (CVE-2022-41721, CVE-2023-39325)
|
||
- Risk: Caddy proxy serves HTTP/2, DoS possible
|
||
- Impact: Service unavailability via stream reset attacks
|
||
- Likelihood: High (publicly known attack vectors)
|
||
|
||
3. **Token Handling** (CVE-2025-22868)
|
||
- Risk: OAuth2 token processing vulnerable
|
||
- Impact: Memory exhaustion or token parsing failure
|
||
- Likelihood: Medium
|
||
|
||
4. **QUIC Crashes** (CVE-2025-59530)
|
||
- Risk: QUIC is used for HTTPS
|
||
- Impact: Connection termination, DoS
|
||
- Likelihood: Medium
|
||
|
||
### Overall Risk Rating
|
||
|
||
**Current Risk Level:** ⚠️ MEDIUM-HIGH
|
||
**Post-Update Risk Level:** ✅ LOW
|
||
**Update Priority:** 🔴 IMMEDIATE (within 24 hours)
|
||

|
||
## Monitoring & Prevention
|
||
|
||
### Automated Dependency Updates
|
||
|
||
**Recommended Setup:**
|
||
1. Enable Dependabot on GitHub
|
||
2. Set up automatic PR creation for security updates
|
||
3. Configure CI to run on dependency PRs
|
||
4. Set up scheduled Trivy scans
|
||
|
||
### Configuration
|
||
|
||
**.github/dependabot.yml:**
|
||
```yaml
|
||
version: 2
|
||
updates:
|
||
- package-ecosystem: "gomod"
|
||
directory: "/backend"
|
||
schedule:
|
||
interval: "weekly"
|
||
open-pull-requests-limit: 5
|
||
reviewers:
|
||
- "security-team"
|
||
- package-ecosystem: "npm"
|
||
directory: "/frontend"
|
||
schedule:
|
||
interval: "weekly"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Regular Scanning
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Weekly vulnerability scan
|
||
0 0 * * 0 cd /projects/Charon && trivy fs . --severity CRITICAL,HIGH --format json > trivy-weekly.json
|
||
|
||
# Monthly deep review
|
||
0 0 1 * * cd /projects/Charon && go list -u -m all > go-dependencies.txt
|
||
```

|
||
3. **OAuth2 Scope** - How extensively is OAuth2 used in the system?
|
||
4. **Attack Surface** - Are these packages exposed to untrusted network input?
