… PATH hijacking vulnerability Upgraded OpenTelemetry Go SDK from v1.40.0 to v1.43.0 to address CVE-2026-24051. The vulnerability allowed PATH hijacking attacks on BSD and Solaris platforms due to the BSD kenv command not using an absolute path. Also upgraded related OpenTelemetry packages to maintain compatibility: - go.opentelemetry.io/otel: v1.40.0 -> v1.43.0 - go.opentelemetry.io/otel/metric: v1.40.0 -> v1.43.0 - go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric: v1.40.0 -> v1.43.0 - go.opentelemetry.io/otel/trace: v1.40.0 -> v1.43.0 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <[email protected]>

Vulnerability Details
The vulnerability (CVE-2026-24051) in OpenTelemetry-Go versions 1.15.0 to 1.42.0 allowed PATH hijacking attacks on BSD and Solaris platforms. While a previous fix addressed the Darwin ioreg command to use an absolute path, the BSD kenv command was left using a bare name, enabling the same attack vector on BSD and Solaris systems.
This has been fixed in version 1.43.0.
