Upgrade renovate to version 44.14.7 or higher.
Overview
renovate is a dependency updater.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Command Injection in the gomod manager when processing unescaped depName parameters in import-path update commands with binarySource=docker mode. An attacker can execute arbitrary commands as the application user by injecting shell metacharacters through malicious dependency names during Go module major version updates with postUpdateOptions gomodUpdateImportPaths enabled. This is only exploitable if binarySource is set to docker and postUpdateOptions gomodUpdateImportPaths is enabled.
Note: binarySource=docker is deprecated.
