Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2023-29406
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go is vulnerable to HTTP header injection, caused by improper contents validation of Host header by the HTTP/1 client. By persuading a victim to visit a specially crafted Web page, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject arbitrary HTTP headers, which will allow the attacker to conduct various attacks against the vulnerable system, including cross-site scripting, cache poisoning or session hijacking.

CVEID:CVE-2023-29409
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an uncontrolled resource consumption flaw. By persuading a victim to use a specially crafted certificate with large RSA keys, an remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a client/server to expend significant CPU time verifying signatures, and results in a denial of service condition.
