Golang: stdlib: security update to 1.11.13stdlib: security update to 1.12.8

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 428505

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to ping floods, potentially leading to a denial of service. The
attacker sends continual pings to an HTTP/2 peer, causing the peer to build an internal queue of
responses. Depending on how efficiently this data is queued, this can consume excess CPU, memory, or both.
(CVE-2019-9512)

- Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a reset flood, potentially leading to a denial of service.
The attacker opens a number of streams and sends an invalid request over each stream that should solicit a
stream of RST_STREAM frames from the peer. Depending on how the peer queues the RST_STREAM frames, this
can consume excess memory, CPU, or both. (CVE-2019-9514)
