      CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>A remote attacker could cause arbitrary code execution by passing
      specially crafted Go packages the ‘go get -u’ command.
    </p>
    
    <p>The remote attacker could also craft pathological inputs causing a CPU
      based Denial of Service condition via the crypto/x509 package.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>All Go users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
    
    <code>
      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-lang/go-1.10.7"
