high Nessus Plugin ID 250284

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Golang running on the remote host is 1.23 prior to 1.23.12 or 1.24 prior to 1.24.6. It is, therefore, is affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- os/exec: LookPath may return unexpected paths (CVE-2025-47906)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Upgrade to Golang Go version 1.24rc2 or later.
