Hello gophers,
We have just released Go versions 1.23.1 and 1.22.7, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 3 security fixes following the security policy:
go/parser: stack exhaustion in all Parse* functions
Calling any of the Parse functions on Go source code which contains deeply nested literals can cause a panic due to stack exhaustion.
This is CVE-2024-34155 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/69138.
encoding/gob: stack exhaustion in Decoder.Decode
Calling Decoder.Decode on a message which contains deeply nested structures can cause a panic due to stack exhaustion.
This is a follow-up to CVE-2022-30635.
Thanks to Md Sakib Anwar of The Ohio State University (anwa...@osu.edu) for reporting this issue.
This is CVE-2024-34156 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/69139.
go/build/constraint: stack exhaustion in Parse
Calling Parse on a "// +build" build tag line with deeply nested expressions can cause a panic due to stack exhaustion.
This is CVE-2024-34158 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/69141.
