Excessive resource consumption when printing error string for host certificate validation in crypto/x509
Within HostnameError.Error(), when constructing an error string, there is no limit to the number of hosts that will be printed out. Furthermore, the error string is constructed by repeated string concatenation, leading to quadratic runtime. Therefore, a certi…

Malformed constraint may cause denial of service in golang.org/x/crypto/ssh/agent
SSH Agent servers do not validate the size of messages when processing new identity requests, which may cause the program to panic if the message is malformed due to an out of bounds read.

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.
