These minor releases include 1 security fixes following the security policy:
net/http: denial of service due to improper 100-continue handling
The net/http HTTP/1.1 client mishandled the case where a server responds to a request with an "Expect: 100-continue" header with a non-informational (200 or higher) status. This mishandling could leave a client connection in an invalid state, where the next request sent on the connection will fail.
An attacker sending a request to a net/http/httputil.ReverseProxy proxy can exploit this mishandling to cause a denial of service by sending "Expect: 100-continue" requests which elicit a non-informational response from the backend. Each such request leaves the proxy with an invalid connection, and causes one subsequent request using that connection to fail.
Thanks to Geoff Franks for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2024-24791 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/67555.

From the security announcement;
We have just released Go versions 1.22.4 and 1.21.11, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 2 security fixes following the security policy:
- archive/zip: mishandling of corrupt central directory record
The archive/zip package's handling of certain types of invalid zip files
differed from the behavior of most zip implementations. This misalignment
could be exploited to create an zip file with contents that vary depending
on the implementation reading the file. The archive/zip package now rejects
files containing these errors.
Thanks to Yufan You for reporting this issue.

[security] Go 1.21.5 and Go 1.20.12 are released
Hello gophers,
We have just released Go versions 1.21.5 and 1.20.12, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 3 security fixes following the security policy:
- net/http: limit chunked data overhead
A malicious HTTP sender can use chunk extensions to cause a receiver
reading from a request or response body to read many more bytes from
the network than are in the body.
A malicious HTTP client can further exploit this to cause a server to
automatically read a large amount of data (up to about 1GiB) when a
handler fails to read the entire body of a request.
Chunk extensions are a little-used HTTP feature which permit including
additional metadata in a request or response body sent using the chunked
encoding. The net/http chunked encoding reader discards this metadata.
A sender can exploit this by inserting a large metadata segment with
each byte transferred. The chunk reader now produces an error if the
ratio of real body to encoded bytes grows too small.
Thanks to Bartek Nowotarski for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-39326 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/64433.
- cmd/go: go get may unexpectedly fallback to insecure git
Using go get to fetch a module with the ".git" suffix may unexpectedly
fallback to the insecure "git://" protocol if the module is unavailable
via the secure "https://" and "git+ssh://" protocols, even if GOINSECURE
is not set for said module. This only affects users who are not using
the module proxy and are fetching modules directly (i.e. GOPROXY=off).
Thanks to David Leadbeater for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-45285 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/63845.
- path/filepath: retain trailing \ when cleaning paths like \\?\c:\
Go 1.20.11 and Go 1.21.4 inadvertently changed the definition of the
volume name in Windows paths starting with \\?\, resulting in
filepath.Clean(\\?\c:\) returning \\?\c: rather than \\?\c:\ (among
other effects). The previous behavior has been restored.

[security] Go 1.21.4 and Go 1.20.11 are released
Hello gophers,
We have just released Go versions 1.21.4 and 1.20.11, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 2 security fixes following the security policy:
- path/filepath: recognize `\??\` as a Root Local Device path prefix.
On Windows, a path beginning with `\??\` is a Root Local Device path equivalent
to a path beginning with `\\?\`. Paths with a `\??\` prefix may be used to
access arbitrary locations on the system. For example, the path `\??\c:\x`
is equivalent to the more common path c:\x.
The filepath package did not recognize paths with a `\??\` prefix as special.
Clean could convert a rooted path such as `\a\..\??\b` into
the root local device path `\??\b`. It will now convert this
path into `.\??\b`.
`IsAbs` did not report paths beginning with `\??\` as absolute.
It now does so.
VolumeName now reports the `\??\` prefix as a volume name.
`Join(`\`, `??`, `b`)` could convert a seemingly innocent
sequence of path elements into the root local device path
`\??\b`. It will now convert this to `\.\??\b`.
This is CVE-2023-45283 and https://go.dev/issue/63713.
- path/filepath: recognize device names with trailing spaces and superscripts
The `IsLocal` function did not correctly detect reserved names in some cases:
- reserved names followed by spaces, such as "COM1 ".
- "COM" or "LPT" followed by a superscript 1, 2, or 3.
`IsLocal` now correctly reports these names as non-local.
This is CVE-2023-45284 and https://go.dev/issue/63713.

[security] Go 1.21.3 and Go 1.20.10 are released
Hello gophers,
We have just released Go versions 1.21.3 and 1.20.10, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 1 security fixes following the security policy:
- net/http: rapid stream resets can cause excessive work
A malicious HTTP/2 client which rapidly creates requests and
immediately resets them can cause excessive server resource consumption.
While the total number of requests is bounded to the
http2.Server.MaxConcurrentStreams setting, resetting an in-progress
request allows the attacker to create a new request while the existing
one is still executing.
HTTP/2 servers now bound the number of simultaneously executing
handler goroutines to the stream concurrency limit. New requests
arriving when at the limit (which can only happen after the client
has reset an existing, in-flight request) will be queued until a
handler exits. If the request queue grows too large, the server
will terminate the connection.
This issue is also fixed in golang.org/x/net/http2 v0.17.0,
for users manually configuring HTTP/2.
The default stream concurrency limit is 250 streams (requests)
per HTTP/2 connection. This value may be adjusted using the
golang.org/x/net/http2 package; see the Server.MaxConcurrentStreams
setting and the ConfigureServer function.
This is CVE-2023-39325 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/63417.
This is also tracked by CVE-2023-44487.

Hello gophers,
We have just released Go versions 1.21.2 and 1.20.9, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 1 security fixes following the security policy:
- cmd/go: line directives allows arbitrary execution during build
"//line" directives can be used to bypass the restrictions on "//go:cgo_"
directives, allowing blocked linker and compiler flags to be passed during
compliation. This can result in unexpected execution of arbitrary code when
running "go build". The line directive requires the absolute path of the file in
which the directive lives, which makes exploting this issue significantly more
complex.

Hello gophers,
We have just released Go versions 1.21.1 and 1.20.8, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 4 security fixes following the security policy:
- cmd/go: go.mod toolchain directive allows arbitrary execution
The go.mod toolchain directive, introduced in Go 1.21, could be leveraged to
execute scripts and binaries relative to the root of the module when the "go"
command was executed within the module. This applies to modules downloaded using
the "go" command from the module proxy, as well as modules downloaded directly
using VCS software.
Thanks to Juho Nurminen of Mattermost for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-39320 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/62198.
- html/template: improper handling of HTML-like comments within script contexts
The html/template package did not properly handle HMTL-like "<!--" and "-->"
comment tokens, nor hashbang "#!" comment tokens, in <script> contexts. This may
cause the template parser to improperly interpret the contents of <script>
contexts, causing actions to be improperly escaped. This could be leveraged to
perform an XSS attack.
Thanks to Takeshi Kaneko (GMO Cybersecurity by Ierae, Inc.) for reporting this
issue.
This is CVE-2023-39318 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/62196.
- html/template: improper handling of special tags within script contexts
The html/template package did not apply the proper rules for handling occurrences
of "<script", "<!--", and "</script" within JS literals in <script> contexts.
This may cause the template parser to improperly consider script contexts to be
terminated early, causing actions to be improperly escaped. This could be
leveraged to perform an XSS attack.
Thanks to Takeshi Kaneko (GMO Cybersecurity by Ierae, Inc.) for reporting this
issue.
This is CVE-2023-39319 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/62197.

[security] Go 1.20.7 and Go 1.19.12 are released
Hello gophers,
We have just released Go versions 1.20.7 and 1.19.12, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 1 security fixes following the security policy:
- crypto/tls: restrict RSA keys in certificates to <= 8192 bits
Extremely large RSA keys in certificate chains can cause a client/server
to expend significant CPU time verifying signatures. Limit this by
restricting the size of RSA keys transmitted during handshakes to <=
8192 bits.
Based on a survey of publicly trusted RSA keys, there are currently only
three certificates in circulation with keys larger than this, and all
three appear to be test certificates that are not actively deployed. It
is possible there are larger keys in use in private PKIs, but we target
the web PKI, so causing breakage here in the interests of increasing the
default safety of users of crypto/tls seems reasonable.

- cmd/go: cgo code injection
The go command may generate unexpected code at build time when using cgo. This
may result in unexpected behavior when running a go program which uses cgo.
This may occur when running an untrusted module which contains directories with
newline characters in their names. Modules which are retrieved using the go command,
i.e. via "go get", are not affected (modules retrieved using GOPATH-mode, i.e.
GO111MODULE=off, may be affected).
Thanks to Juho Nurminen of Mattermost for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-29402 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/60167.
- runtime: unexpected behavior of setuid/setgid binaries
The Go runtime didn't act any differently when a binary had the setuid/setgid
bit set. On Unix platforms, if a setuid/setgid binary was executed with standard
I/O file descriptors closed, opening any files could result in unexpected
content being read/written with elevated prilieges. Similarly if a setuid/setgid
program was terminated, either via panic or signal, it could leak the contents
of its registers.
Thanks to Vincent Dehors from Synacktiv for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-29403 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/60272.
- cmd/go: improper sanitization of LDFLAGS

occur when running "go get" on a malicious module, or when running any other
command which builds untrusted code. This is can by triggered by linker flags,
specified via a "#cgo LDFLAGS" directive.

Further details from the announcement on the mailing list:
We have just released Go versions 1.20.3 and 1.19.8, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 4 security fixes following the security policy:
- go/parser: infinite loop in parsing
Calling any of the Parse functions on Go source code which contains `//line`
directives with very large line numbers can cause an infinite loop due to
integer overflow.
Thanks to Philippe Antoine (Catena cyber) for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-24537 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/59180.
- html/template: backticks not treated as string delimiters
Templates did not properly consider backticks (`) as Javascript string
delimiters, and as such did not escape them as expected. Backticks are
used, since ES6, for JS template literals. If a template contained a Go
template action within a Javascript template literal, the contents of the
action could be used to terminate the literal, injecting arbitrary Javascript
code into the Go template.
As ES6 template literals are rather complex, and themselves can do string
interpolation, we've decided to simply disallow Go template actions from being
used inside of them (e.g. "var a = {{.}}"), since there is no obviously safe
way to allow this behavior. This takes the same approach as
github.com/google/safehtml. Template.Parse will now return an Error when it
encounters templates like this, with a currently unexported ErrorCode with a
value of 12. This ErrorCode will be exported in the next major release.
Users who rely on this behavior can re-enable it using the GODEBUG flag
jstmpllitinterp=1, with the caveat that backticks will now be escaped. This
should be used with caution.
Thanks to Sohom Datta, Manipal Institute of Technology, for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-24538 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/59234.
- net/http, net/textproto: denial of service from excessive memory allocation
HTTP and MIME header parsing could allocate large amounts of memory, even when
parsing small inputs.
Certain unusual patterns of input data could cause the common function used to
parse HTTP and MIME headers to allocate substantially more memory than
required to hold the parsed headers. An attacker can exploit this behavior to
cause an HTTP server to allocate large amounts of memory from a small request,
potentially leading to memory exhaustion and a denial of service.
Header parsing now correctly allocates only the memory required to hold parsed
headers.
Thanks to Jakob Ackermann (@das7pad) for discovering this issue.
This is CVE-2023-24534 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/58975.
- net/http, net/textproto, mime/multipart: denial of service from excessive resource consumption
Multipart form parsing can consume large amounts of CPU and memory when
processing form inputs containing very large numbers of parts. This stems from
several causes:
mime/multipart.Reader.ReadForm limits the total memory a parsed multipart form
can consume. ReadForm could undercount the amount of memory consumed, leading
it to accept larger inputs than intended. Limiting total memory does not
account for increased pressure on the garbage collector from large numbers of
small allocations in forms with many parts. ReadForm could allocate a large
number of short-lived buffers, further increasing pressure on the garbage
collector. The combination of these factors can permit an attacker to cause an
program that parses multipart forms to consume large amounts of CPU and
memory, potentially resulting in a denial of service. This affects programs
that use mime/multipart.Reader.ReadForm, as well as form parsing in the
net/http package with the Request methods FormFile, FormValue,
ParseMultipartForm, and PostFormValue.
ReadForm now does a better job of estimating the memory consumption of parsed
forms, and performs many fewer short-lived allocations.
In addition, mime/multipart.Reader now imposes the following limits on the
size of parsed forms:
Forms parsed with ReadForm may contain no more than 1000 parts. This limit may
be adjusted with the environment variable GODEBUG=multipartmaxparts=. Form
parts parsed with NextPart and NextRawPart may contain no more than 10,000
header fields. In addition, forms parsed with ReadForm may contain no more
than 10,000 header fields across all parts. This limit may be adjusted with
the environment variable GODEBUG=multipartmaxheaders=.

go1.19.10 (released 2023-06-06) includes four security fixes to the cmd/go and
runtime packages, as well as bug fixes to the compiler, the go command, and the
runtime. See the Go 1.19.10 milestone on our issue tracker for details:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues?q=milestone%3AGo1.19.10+label%3ACherryPickApproved
full diff: https://github.com/golang/go/compare/go1.19.9...go1.19.10
These minor releases include 3 security fixes following the security policy:
- cmd/go: cgo code injection
The go command may generate unexpected code at build time when using cgo. This
may result in unexpected behavior when running a go program which uses cgo.
This may occur when running an untrusted module which contains directories with
newline characters in their names. Modules which are retrieved using the go command,
i.e. via "go get", are not affected (modules retrieved using GOPATH-mode, i.e.
GO111MODULE=off, may be affected).
Thanks to Juho Nurminen of Mattermost for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-29402 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/60167.
- runtime: unexpected behavior of setuid/setgid binaries
The Go runtime didn't act any differently when a binary had the setuid/setgid
bit set. On Unix platforms, if a setuid/setgid binary was executed with standard
I/O file descriptors closed, opening any files could result in unexpected
content being read/written with elevated prilieges. Similarly if a setuid/setgid
program was terminated, either via panic or signal, it could leak the contents
of its registers.
Thanks to Vincent Dehors from Synacktiv for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-29403 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/60272.
- cmd/go: improper sanitization of LDFLAGS
The go command may execute arbitrary code at build time when using cgo. This may
occur when running "go get" on a malicious module, or when running any other
command which builds untrusted code. This is can by triggered by linker flags,
specified via a "#cgo LDFLAGS" directive.

go1.19.8 (released 2023-04-04) includes security fixes to the go/parser,
html/template, mime/multipart, net/http, and net/textproto packages, as well as
bug fixes to the linker, the runtime, and the time package. See the Go 1.19.8
milestone on our issue tracker for details:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues?q=milestone%3AGo1.19.8+label%3ACherryPickApproved
full diff: https://github.com/golang/go/compare/go1.19.7...go1.19.8
Further details from the announcement on the mailing list:
We have just released Go versions 1.20.3 and 1.19.8, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 4 security fixes following the security policy:
- go/parser: infinite loop in parsing
Calling any of the Parse functions on Go source code which contains `//line`
directives with very large line numbers can cause an infinite loop due to
integer overflow.
Thanks to Philippe Antoine (Catena cyber) for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-24537 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/59180.
- html/template: backticks not treated as string delimiters
Templates did not properly consider backticks (`) as Javascript string
delimiters, and as such did not escape them as expected. Backticks are
used, since ES6, for JS template literals. If a template contained a Go
template action within a Javascript template literal, the contents of the
action could be used to terminate the literal, injecting arbitrary Javascript
code into the Go template.
As ES6 template literals are rather complex, and themselves can do string
interpolation, we've decided to simply disallow Go template actions from being
used inside of them (e.g. "var a = {{.}}"), since there is no obviously safe
way to allow this behavior. This takes the same approach as
github.com/google/safehtml. Template.Parse will now return an Error when it
encounters templates like this, with a currently unexported ErrorCode with a
value of 12. This ErrorCode will be exported in the next major release.
Users who rely on this behavior can re-enable it using the GODEBUG flag
jstmpllitinterp=1, with the caveat that backticks will now be escaped. This
should be used with caution.
Thanks to Sohom Datta, Manipal Institute of Technology, for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2023-24538 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/59234.
- net/http, net/textproto: denial of service from excessive memory allocation
HTTP and MIME header parsing could allocate large amounts of memory, even when
parsing small inputs.
Certain unusual patterns of input data could cause the common function used to
parse HTTP and MIME headers to allocate substantially more memory than
required to hold the parsed headers. An attacker can exploit this behavior to
cause an HTTP server to allocate large amounts of memory from a small request,
potentially leading to memory exhaustion and a denial of service.
Header parsing now correctly allocates only the memory required to hold parsed
headers.
Thanks to Jakob Ackermann (@das7pad) for discovering this issue.
This is CVE-2023-24534 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/58975.
- net/http, net/textproto, mime/multipart: denial of service from excessive resource consumption
Multipart form parsing can consume large amounts of CPU and memory when
processing form inputs containing very large numbers of parts. This stems from
several causes:
mime/multipart.Reader.ReadForm limits the total memory a parsed multipart form
can consume. ReadForm could undercount the amount of memory consumed, leading
it to accept larger inputs than intended. Limiting total memory does not
account for increased pressure on the garbage collector from large numbers of
small allocations in forms with many parts. ReadForm could allocate a large
number of short-lived buffers, further increasing pressure on the garbage
collector. The combination of these factors can permit an attacker to cause an
program that parses multipart forms to consume large amounts of CPU and
memory, potentially resulting in a denial of service. This affects programs
that use mime/multipart.Reader.ReadForm, as well as form parsing in the
net/http package with the Request methods FormFile, FormValue,
ParseMultipartForm, and PostFormValue.
ReadForm now does a better job of estimating the memory consumption of parsed
forms, and performs many fewer short-lived allocations.
In addition, mime/multipart.Reader now imposes the following limits on the
size of parsed forms:
Forms parsed with ReadForm may contain no more than 1000 parts. This limit may
be adjusted with the environment variable GODEBUG=multipartmaxparts=. Form
parts parsed with NextPart and NextRawPart may contain no more than 10,000
header fields. In addition, forms parsed with ReadForm may contain no more
than 10,000 header fields across all parts. This limit may be adjusted with
the environment variable GODEBUG=multipartmaxheaders=.
