Golang 1.24 < 1.24.2

high Nessus Plugin ID 233871

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote Windows host is affected by a request smuggling vulnerability.

Description

The version of Golang running on the remote host is 1.24 prior to 1.24.2. It is, therefore, is affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- Unlike request headers, where we are allowed to leniently accept a bare LF in place of a CRLF, chunked bodies must always use CRLF line terminators. We were already enforcing this for chunk-data lines;
do so for chunk-size lines as well. Also reject bare CRs anywhere other than as part of the CRLF terminator.

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

Solution

Upgrade to Golang Go version 1.24.2 or later.
