Hello gophers, We have just released Go versions 1.16.7 and 1.15.15, minor point releases.
These minor releases include a security fix according to the new security policy. A net/http/httputil ReverseProxy can panic due to a race condition if its Handler aborts with ErrAbortHandler, for example due to an error in copying the response body. An attacker might be able to force the conditions leading to the race condition. This is issue https://golang.org/issue/46866 and CVE-2021-36221. Thanks to Andrew Crump (VMware) for reporting this issue. View the release notes for more information: https://golang.org/doc/devel/release.html#go1.16.minor You can download binary and source distributions from the Go web site: https://golang.org/dl/ To compile from source using a Git clone, update to the release with "git checkout go1.16.7" and build as usual. Thanks to everyone who contributed to the releases. Cheers, David, Carlos, and Alex for the Go team -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
