URLs in meta content attribute actions are not escaped in html/template
Actions which insert URLs into the content attribute of HTML meta tags are not escaped. This can allow XSS if the meta tag also has an http-equiv attribute with the value "refresh". A new GODEBUG setting has been added, htmlmetacontenturlescape, which can be …

Incorrect parsing of IPv6 host literals in net/url
url.Parse insufficiently validated the host/authority component and accepted some invalid URLs.

Unexpected session resumption in crypto/tls
During session resumption in crypto/tls, if the underlying Config has its ClientCAs or RootCAs fields mutated between the initial handshake and the resumed handshake, the resumed handshake may succeed when it should have failed. This may happen when a user ca…

Potential code smuggling via doc comments in cmd/cgo
A discrepancy between how Go and C/C++ comments were parsed allowed for code smuggling into the resulting cgo binary.

Memory exhaustion in query parameter parsing in net/url
The net/url package does not set a limit on the number of query parameters in a query. While the maximum size of query parameters in URLs is generally limited by the maximum request header size, the net/http.Request.ParseForm method can parse large URL-encode…

Arbitrary file write using cgo pkg-config directive in cmd/go
Building a malicious file with cmd/go can cause can cause a write to an attacker-controlled file with partial control of the file content. The "#cgo pkg-config:" directive in a Go source file provides command-line arguments to provide to the Go pkg-config com…

Handshake messages may be processed at the incorrect encryption level in crypto/tls
During the TLS 1.3 handshake if multiple messages are sent in records that span encryption level boundaries (for instance the Client Hello and Encrypted Extensions messages), the subsequent messages may be processed before the encryption level changes. This c…

Unexpected code execution when invoking toolchain in cmd/go
Downloading and building modules with malicious version strings can cause local code execution. On systems with Mercurial (hg) installed, downloading modules from non-standard sources (e.g., custom domains) can cause unexpected code execution due to how exter…

Excessive CPU consumption in Reader.ReadResponse in net/textproto
The Reader.ReadResponse function constructs a response string through repeated string concatenation of lines. When the number of lines in a response is large, this can cause excessive CPU consumption.

Unbounded allocation when parsing GNU sparse map in archive/tar
tar.Reader does not set a maximum size on the number of sparse region data blocks in GNU tar pax 1.0 sparse files. A maliciously-crafted archive containing a large number of sparse regions can cause a Reader to read an unbounded amount of data from the archiv…

Panic when validating certificates with DSA public keys in crypto/x509
Validating certificate chains which contain DSA public keys can cause programs to panic, due to a interface cast that assumes they implement the Equal method. This affects programs which validate arbitrary certificate chains.

Quadratic complexity when parsing some invalid inputs in encoding/pem
The processing time for parsing some invalid inputs scales non-linearly with respect to the size of the input. This affects programs which parse untrusted PEM inputs.

Parsing DER payload can cause memory exhaustion in encoding/asn1
Parsing a maliciously crafted DER payload could allocate large amounts of memory, causing memory exhaustion.

Lack of limit when parsing cookies can cause memory exhaustion in net/http
Despite HTTP headers having a default limit of 1MB, the number of cookies that can be parsed does not have a limit. By sending a lot of very small cookies such as "a=;", an attacker can make an HTTP server allocate a large amount of structs, causing large mem…

Insufficient validation of bracketed IPv6 hostnames in net/url
The Parse function permits values other than IPv6 addresses to be included in square brackets within the host component of a URL. RFC 3986 permits IPv6 addresses to be included within the host component, enclosed within square brackets. For example: "http://[…

Excessive CPU consumption in ParseAddress in net/mail
The ParseAddress function constructs domain-literal address components through repeated string concatenation. When parsing large domain-literal components, this can cause excessive CPU consumption.

Quadratic complexity when checking name constraints in crypto/x509
Due to the design of the name constraint checking algorithm, the processing time of some inputs scale non-linearly with respect to the size of the certificate. This affects programs which validate arbitrary certificate chains.

ALPN negotiation error contains attacker controlled information in crypto/tls
When Conn.Handshake fails during ALPN negotiation the error contains attacker controlled information (the ALPN protocols sent by the client) which is not escaped.

Unexpected paths returned from LookPath in os/exec
If the PATH environment variable contains paths which are executables (rather than just directories), passing certain strings to LookPath ("", ".", and ".."), can result in the binaries listed in the PATH being unexpectedly returned.
