Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2023-24539
**DESCRIPTION:**Go is vulnerable to HTML injection. A remote attacker could inject malicious HTML code into a template containing multiple actions separated by a ‘/’ character, which when viewed, would execute in the victim’s Web browser within the security context of the hosting site.
CVSS Base score: 7.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/256136 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)

CVEID:CVE-2023-29400
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go is vulnerable to HTML injection. A remote attacker could inject malicious HTML code into the templates, which when parsed, would execute in the victim’s Web browser within the security context of the hosting site.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/255427 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2023-29403
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a local authenticated attacker to gain elevated privileges on the system, caused by a flaw when a binary is run with the setuid/setgid bits. By sending a specially crafted request, an authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to gain elevated privileges. to read or write contents of the registers.
CVSS Base score: 7.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/257653 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2023-24540
**DESCRIPTION:**Go is vulnerable to HTML injection. A remote attacker could inject malicious HTML code into a template containing whitespace characters outside of the character set “\t\n\f\r\u0020\u2028\u2029”, which when viewed, would execute in the victim’s Web browser within the security context of the hosting site.
CVSS Base score: 9.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/256132 for the current score.

CVEID:CVE-2023-29402
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by the generation of unexpected code at build time when using cgo. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 9.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/257652 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2023-29404
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a flaw when running “go get” on a malicious module. By sending a specially crafted request using linker flags, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 9.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/257654 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2023-29405
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a flaw when running “go get” on a malicious module. By sending a specially crafted request using linker flags, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 9.8
