therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities in the standard library and the toolchain, as referenced in the
golang-announce advisory.

  - The ToASCII and ToUnicode functions incorrectly accepted Punycode-encoded labels that decode to an
    ASCII-only label. This can lead to privilege escalation in programs using the idna package.
    (CVE-2026-39821)

  - When a server is configured to support unencrypted HTTP/2, it reads bytes from each new connection
    to check for the HTTP/2 client preface. Previously this was done with no timeout. ReadHeaderTimeout
    is now applied for this check. (CVE-2026-56853)

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