Google: dev-lang/go: security update to 17162.127.5

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 452867

Description

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

- Requests forwarded by ReverseProxy include the raw query parameters from the inbound request, including
unparsable parameters rejected by net/http. This could permit query parameter smuggling when a Go proxy
forwards a parameter with an unparsable value. After fix, ReverseProxy sanitizes the query parameters in
the forwarded query when the outbound request's Form field is set after the ReverseProxy. Director
function returns, indicating that the proxy has parsed the query parameters. Proxies which do not parse
query parameters continue to forward the original query parameters unchanged. (CVE-2022-2880)

Solution

Update the dev-lang/go library and its related packages to version 17162.127.5 or later.
