prometheus/common needs manual upgrade

[mflendrich]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Problem Statement

We've skipped 5 consecutive version bumps from dependabot because they didn't apply cleanly:

0.31: #1867
0.30: #1590
0.29: #1452 et al
0.28: #1403
0.27: #1395

If we continue skipping versions like this, the drift will keep building up and the upgrade will become more problematic and regression-risky.

Proposed Solution

Bump github.com/prometheus/common to the most recent available version manually

Additional information

Assigning severity medium because this issue will rot if left unattended for long.

Acceptance Criteria

• KIC is using github.com/prometheus/common in its latest stable version
