Request 8.1.1 patch release: four HIGH CVEs fixed on stable-8.1 but unreleased #12810

Description

@DeepDiver1975

Request

Please consider cutting an 8.1.1 patch release from stable-8.1.

Why

stable-8.1 already contains the fixes for four HIGH-severity advisories, but none of them
have reached a released artifact: v8.1.0 (2026-07-06) is still the only 8.1 release.
Anyone tracking the 8.1 line therefore runs a binary with all four, even though the 8.0 and
8.2 lines are clean (8.0.7 and 8.2.0 both ship the fixed dependency set).

Versions below were read directly from go.mod at each ref:

Advisory Dependency v8.1.0 (released) Fixed in stable-8.1 today
CVE-2026-46600 golang.org/x/net v0.55.0 0.56.0 v0.57.0 ✅
CVE-2026-56852 golang.org/x/text v0.38.0 0.39.0 v0.40.0 ✅
GHSA-hrxh-6v49-42gf google.golang.org/grpc v1.81.1 1.82.1 v1.83.0 ✅
CVE-2026-71556 github.com/go-git/go-git/v5 v5.19.1 5.19.2 v5.19.2 ✅

Nothing to fix on the dependency side

This is purely a release-cadence request — the work is already done. #12774
("chore: [stable-8.1] bump go packages", merged 2026-08-12) bumped every affected module,
and the branch is clearly maintained (backports through 2026-08-14, plus #12807 bumping
golang.org/x/image today). The fixes just need a tag.

Downstream impact

I maintain the container images in owncloud-docker/ocis.
Our Trivy gate scans the built ocis binary, so to keep publishing owncloud/ocis:8.1 at
all we have to carry all four advisories as suppressions in
v8/8.1/.trivyignore
(most recently CVE-2026-46600, in owncloud-docker/ocis#37 — it was breaking our nightly
build). Those entries are the only reason the 8.1 image is green, and they are exactly the
kind of suppression we would rather not ship. An 8.1.1 would let us drop all four.

For reference, the same scan on the 8.0.7 and 8.2.0 images is clean, and master is clean
too — 8.1 is the only line where fixes are sitting unreleased.

If 8.1 is not a maintained line

If the intent is that 8.1 users move to 8.2 rather than receive patches, please just say so
and close this — that is a perfectly good answer. We would then retire the 8.1 image tag
instead of maintaining the suppression list.

A note on the channel

SECURITY.md asks that vulnerabilities not be filed as public issues, and I want to be
explicit that I do not think this is one: every advisory here is already public, sits in a
public third-party dependency, and is already fixed on a public branch. Nothing
undisclosed is revealed, and the actual ask is about release timing. Happy to move this to
security.owncloud.com if you would prefer.

    Should be released now, right? Close? @2403905

    Right. Confused it with this one - owncloud-docker/ocis#40 (8.0.8)

    Three further advisories now apply to v8.1.0, taking this from four to seven, and one of the
    new ones is CRITICAL. As before, stable-8.1 already carries every fix — the ask is unchanged,
    just more urgent.

    Advisory Dependency v8.1.0 (released) Fixed in stable-8.1 today
    CVE-2026-56854 (CRITICAL) golang.org/x/crypto v0.52.0 0.55.0 v0.55.0 ✅
    CVE-2026-46603 (HIGH) golang.org/x/image v0.43.0 0.45.0 v0.45.0 ✅
    CVE-2026-84304 (HIGH) google.golang.org/grpc v1.81.1 1.83.1 v1.83.1 ✅
    • CVE-2026-56854 — golang.org/x/crypto/ssh: authentication bypass due to unenforced
      source-address restrictions
    • CVE-2026-46603 — golang.org/x/image/vp8l: denial of service via excessive memory allocation
    • CVE-2026-84304 — gRPC-Go, affecting versions prior to 1.83.1

    Note that CVE-2026-84304 is a second grpc advisory on top of the GHSA-hrxh-6v49-42gf row in the
    original table: stable-8.1 was on v1.83.0 when I filed this, which cleared that one, and has
    since moved to v1.83.1, which clears this one too. Versions above were read from go.mod at each
    ref.

    Evidence — the 8.1 leg of
    run 34207664511
    (amd64; the arm64 leg is identical):

    usr/bin/ocis (gobinary)
    Total: 3 (HIGH: 2, CRITICAL: 1)
    
    golang.org/x/crypto     CVE-2026-56854  CRITICAL  v0.52.0  -> 0.55.0
    golang.org/x/image      CVE-2026-46603  HIGH      v0.43.0  -> 0.45.0
    google.golang.org/grpc  CVE-2026-84304  HIGH      v1.81.1  -> 1.83.1
    

    This gate has been red since 2026-09-02 (CVE-2026-56854 and CVE-2026-84304 in run
    33599994938, CVE-2026-46603 joining later the same day in run 33682286181); the last green
    Docker CI run was 33287805400 on 2026-08-30. Because the 8.1 leg is part of a shared build
    matrix, it has been failing every unrelated PR in that repo too — the run linked above is a
    Renovate docker.io/golang bump.

    I have deliberately not added these three to
    v8/8.1/.trivyignore
    yet — the existing four suppressions are already more than I would like to ship, and a CRITICAL is
    not something I want to paper over silently.

    Related: the same three advisories also apply to the released v8.2.0, which carries the latest
    tag. I have filed that separately as #12903, because unlike 8.1 it needs an actual dependency bump
    first (stable-8.2 is still on grpc v1.83.0, one patch short of the v1.83.1 fix).

    @2403905 — is an 8.1.1 still on the table, or should we plan on retiring the 8.1 image tag?
    Either answer works for us; the current state is just the one we cannot act on.

    Update from run 34955346272 (2026-09-15)

    A fresh Trivy scan of the still-unreleased v8.1.0 image (amd64) surfaces one more advisory on top of the four already listed above:

    Advisory Dependency v8.1.0 (released) Fixed in stable-8.1 today
    CVE-2026-84445 (HIGH) — new google.golang.org/grpc v1.82.1 1.82.2, 1.83.2, or 1.85.0-dev v1.83.2 ✅

    Same story as the other four: stable-8.1 already carries the fix (v1.83.2, same bump that fixed the grpc advisory already in the table above), it just hasn't reached a release. This doesn't change the ask — it just makes it a 5-advisory case instead of 4.

    (Version read directly from go.mod on stable-8.1, not inferred.)

    Restating the original request: please cut 8.1.1 from stable-8.1.
