CVEID:CVE-2021-34558
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by the failure to properly assert that the type of public key in an X.509 certificate matches the expected type in the crypto/tls package. By persuading a victim to connect to a specially-crafted TLS server, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a TLS client to panic.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/205578 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2021-33197
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw in the ReverseProxy in net/http/httputil. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to drop arbitrary headers, including those set by the ReverseProxy.Director.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/206603 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2021-29845
**DESCRIPTION:**IBM Security Guardium Insights could allow an authenticated user to perform unauthorized actions due to improper input validation.
CVSS Base score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/205255 for the current score.

CVEID:CVE-2021-33195
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by not following RFC 1035 rules in the LookupCNAME, LookupSRV, LookupMX, LookupNS, and LookupAddr functions in net. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 7.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/206601 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-2021-29838
**DESCRIPTION:**IBM Security Guardium Insights could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the failure to properly enable HTTP Strict Transport Security. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information using man in the middle techniques.
CVSS Base score: 5.9
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/205026 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2021-33196
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a flaw in the NewReader and OpenReader functions in archive/zip.
