An important update for go1.10 in openSUSE addresses three security vulnerabilities, reinforcing overall system security.
An update that solves three vulnerabilities and has 5 fixes is now available.

Description

This update for go1.10 fixes the following issues:

Security vulnerabilities fixed:

- CVE-2018-16873 (bsc#1118897): cmd/go: remote command execution during

"go get -u".

- CVE-2018-16874 (bsc#1118898): cmd/go: directory traversal in "go get"

via curly braces in import paths

- CVE-2018-16875 (bsc#1118899): crypto/x509: CPU denial of service

Other issues fixed:

- Fix build error with PIE linker flags on ppc64le. (bsc#1113978,

bsc#1098017)

- Review dependencies (requires, recommends and supports) (bsc#1082409)

- Make profile.d/go.sh no longer set GOROOT=, in order to make switching

between versions no longer break. This ends up removing the need for

go.sh entirely (because GOPATH is also set automatically) (boo#1119634)

- Fix a regression that broke go get for import path patterns containing

"..." (bsc#1119706)
