We are using github.com/prometheus/client_golang:v1.19.1 and during a security and version compliance assessment, we identified that it depends on github.com/munnerz/goautoneg:20191010-snapshot-a7dc8b61, which is End of Life (EOL) and no longer actively maintained.
This dependency also exists indirectly through github.com/prometheus/common:v0.55.0.
To maintain compliance and ensure long-term security, it is recommended to upgrade or replace this EOL dependency.
