GHSA-pm3m-32r3-7mfh Etcd embed auto compaction retention negative value causing a compaction loop or a crash

• Go go.etcd.io/etcd/v3: >= 3.4.0-rc.0, < 3.4.10 → fixed in 3.4.10 • Go go.etcd.io/etcd/v3: < 3.3.23 → fixed in 3.3.23

Impact Data Validation Detail The parseCompactionRetention function in embed/etcd.go allows the retention variable value to be negative and causes the node to execute the history compaction in a loop, taking more CPU than usual and spamming logs.
