Summary
A service for building customized OS artifacts, such as VM images and OSTree commits, that uses osbuild under the hood. Besides building images for local usage, it can also upload images directly to cloud. It is compatible with composer-cli and cockpit-composer clients.
Security Fix(es):
* golang-fips/openssl: Memory leaks in code encrypting and decrypting RSA payloads (CVE-2024-1394)
* go/build/constraint: golang: Calling Parse on a "// +build" build tag line with deeply nested expressions can cause a panic due to stack exhaustion (CVE-2024-34158)
* golang-fips: Golang FIPS zeroed buffer (CVE-2024-9355)

Golang-fips/openssl: memory leaks in code encrypting and decrypting rsa payloads
A memory leak flaw was found in Golang in the RSA encrypting/decrypting code, which might lead to a resource exhaustion vulnerability using attacker-controlled inputs. The memory leak happens in github.com/golang-fips/openssl/openssl/rsa.go#L113. The objects…

Golang-fips: golang fips zeroed buffer
A vulnerability was found in Golang FIPS OpenSSL. This flaw allows a malicious user to randomly cause an uninitialized buffer length variable with a zeroed buffer to be returned in FIPS mode. It may also be possible to force a false positive match between non…
