Vulnerability Insight:
An input validation vulnerability was found in go. From a generated go file
(from the cgo tool) it is possible to modify symbols within that object file
and specify code instead. An attacker could potentially use this flaw by
creating a repository which included malicious pre-built object files that
could execute arbitrary code when downloaded and run via 'go get' or 'go build'
whilst building a go project (CVE-2020-28366).

An input validation vulnerability was found in go. If cgo is specified in a go
