chore(deps): bump golang.org/x/mod to v0.40.0 (fix Trivy HIGH CVEs) - #468
Merged
Conversation
golang.org/x/mod v0.37.0 (pulled in transitively via hashicorp/hcl -> golang.org/x/tools/cmd/stringer) has two fixable HIGH vulnerabilities that wedge the Trivy fixable-CRITICAL/HIGH gate on every open PR: - CVE-2026-56864: malicious GOSUMDB could serve arbitrary module content - CVE-2026-56865: malicious GOPROXY could forge sumdb entries Both are fixed in v0.40.0. `go mod tidy` also advanced the related x/net, x/text, and x/tools indirect deps. Verified locally with trivy 0.70.0 (matching CI): fs scan with --severity CRITICAL,HIGH --ignore-unfixed now reports 0 vulnerabilities and exits 0.

LGTM 🎉 — a clean indirect-dependency bump (golang.org/x/mod 0.37.0→0.40.0 closing the two fixable HIGH CVEs, with x/net/x/text/x/tools advanced by go mod tidy); I verified go build ./..., go mod verify, and a fresh go mod tidy all pass with no further changes, and test/integration carries no x/mod, @anisaoshafi.
Automated review on behalf of @gtsiolis.
