OCPBUGS-50568: Fix for CVE-2024-45338 in golang.org/x/net/html in release-4.15

[aman4433]

A flaw was found in golang.org/x/net/html. This flaw allows an attacker to craft input to the parse functions that would be processed non-linearly with respect to its length, resulting in extremely slow parsing. This issue can cause a denial of service.

To address this issue, we have upgraded the library to version v0.33.0, which includes a fix for the vulnerability.

Affected Library: golang.org/x/net/html
Current Version: v0.17.0
Fixed Version: v0.33.0

Hi @aman4433. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a openshift member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.
