Hello gophers,

We have just released Go versions 1.22.1 and 1.21.8, minor point releases.

These minor releases include 5 security fixes following the security policy 
<https://go.dev/security>:

-       crypto/x509: Verify panics on certificates with an unknown public key 
algorithm

        Verifying a certificate chain which contains a certificate with an 
unknown public
        key algorithm will cause Certificate.Verify to panic.

        This affects all crypto/tls clients, and servers that set 
Config.ClientAuth to
        VerifyClientCertIfGiven or RequireAndVerifyClientCert. The default 
behavior is
        for TLS servers to not verify client certificates.

        Thanks to John Howard (Google) for reporting this issue.

        This is CVE-2024-24783 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/65390.

-       net/http: memory exhaustion in Request.ParseMultipartForm

        When parsing a multipart form (either explicitly with 
Request.ParseMultipartForm or implicitly with Request.FormValue, 
Request.PostFormValue, or Request.FormFile), limits on the total size of the 
parsed form were not applied to the memory consumed while reading a single form 
line. This permitted a maliciously crafted input containing very long lines to 
cause allocation of arbitrarily large amounts of memory, potentially leading to 
memory exhaustion.

        ParseMultipartForm now correctly limits the maximum size of form lines.

        Thanks to Bartek Nowotarski for reporting this issue.

        This is CVE-2023-45290 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/65383.

-       net/http, net/http/cookiejar: incorrect forwarding of sensitive headers 
and cookies on HTTP redirect

        When following an HTTP redirect to a domain which is not a subdomain 
match or exact match of the initial domain, an http.Client does not forward 
sensitive headers such as "Authorization" or "Cookie". For example, a redirect 
from foo.com to www.foo.com will forward the Authorization header, but a 
redirect to bar.com will not.

        A maliciously crafted HTTP redirect could cause sensitive headers to be 
unexpectedly forwarded.

        Thanks to Juho Nurminen of Mattermost for reporting this issue.

        This is CVE-2023-45289 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/65065.

-       html/template: errors returned from MarshalJSON methods may break 
template escaping

        If errors returned from MarshalJSON methods contain user controlled 
data, they
        may be used to break the contextual auto-escaping behavior of the 
html/template
        package, allowing for subsequent actions to inject unexpected content 
into
        templates.

        Thanks to RyotaK (https://ryotak.net) for reporting this issue.

        This is CVE-2024-24785 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/65697.

-       net/mail: comments in display names are incorrectly handled

        The ParseAddressList function incorrectly handles comments (text within 
parentheses) within display names. Since this is a misalignment with conforming 
address parsers, it can result in different trust decisions being made by 
programs using different parsers.

        Thanks to Juho Nurminen of Mattermost and Slonser 
(https://github.com/Slonser) for reporting this issue.

        This is CVE-2024-24784 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/65083.
