Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- Due to unsanitized NUL values, attackers may be able to maliciously set environment variables on Windows.
In syscall.StartProcess and os/exec.Cmd, invalid environment variable values containing NUL values are not
properly checked for. A malicious environment variable value can exploit this behavior to set a value for
a different environment variable. For example, the environment variable string "A=B\x00C=D" sets the
