Golang: stdlib: security update to 1.25.6
high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 437356
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:- 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 external VCS commands are constructed. This issue can also be
triggered by providing a malicious version string to the toolchain. On systems with Git installed,
downloading and building modules with malicious version strings can allow an attacker to write to
arbitrary files on the filesystem. This can only be triggered by explicitly providing the malicious
version strings to the toolchain and does not affect usage of @latest or bare module paths.
