GHSA-f2ph-gc9m-q55f: lakeFS is Missing Timestamp Validation in S3 Gateway Authentication

### Impact LakeFS's S3 gateway does not validate timestamps in authenticated requests, allowing replay attacks. An attacker who captures a valid signed request (e.g., through network interception, logs, or compromised systems) can replay that request until credentials are rotated, even after the request is intended to expire. ### Patches This issue affects all versions of lakeFS up to and including v1.74.4. The vulnerability has been fixed in version v1.75.0. Users should upgrade to version v1.75.0. ### Workarounds Until upgraded, implement these mitigations: - **Use short-lived credentials** - Rotate access keys frequently and **deactivate old keys**. For regular requests, captured requests only work until rotation. For presigned URLs, they remain valid until the credentials used to create them are deactivated. - **Network controls** - Restrict S3 gateway access to trusted networks/IPs to limit where replay attacks can originate. Note: These workarounds reduce risk but do not f...
