  CVE-2026-27143

  Missing bound checks can lead to memory corruption in safe Go in cmd/compile

  Unauthenticated TLS 1.3 KeyUpdate record can cause persistent connection retention and DoS in crypto/tls

  If one side of the TLS connection sends multiple key update messages post-handshake in a single record, the connection can deadlock, causing uncontrolled consumption of resources. This can lead to a denial of service. This only affects TLS 1.3.

  CVE-2026-27144

  Miscompilation allows memory corruption via CONVNOP-wrapped array copy in cmd/compile

  The compiler is meant to unwrap pointers which are the operands of a memory move; a no-op interface conversion prevented the compiler from making the correct determination about non-overlapping moves, potentially leading to memory corruption at runtime.

  TOCTOU permits root escape on Linux via Root.Chmod in os in internal/syscall/unix

  On Linux, if the target of Root.Chmod is replaced with a symlink while the chmod operation is in progress, Chmod can operate on the target of the symlink, even when the target lies outside the root. The Linux fchmodat syscall silently ignores the AT_SYMLINK_N…
