Golang: stdlib: security update to 1.18.7stdlib: security update to 1.19.2

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 428524

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Programs which compile regular expressions from untrusted sources may be vulnerable to memory exhaustion
or denial of service. The parsed regexp representation is linear in the size of the input, but in some
cases the constant factor can be as high as 40,000, making relatively small regexps consume much larger
amounts of memory. After fix, each regexp being parsed is limited to a 256 MB memory footprint. Regular
expressions whose representation would use more space than that are rejected. Normal use of regular
expressions is unaffected. (CVE-2022-41715)
