Synopsis
========

A vulnerability in Go might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary
commands during source code build.

Background
==========

Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build
simple, reliable, and efficient software.

Affected packages
=================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package              /     Vulnerable     /            Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  dev-lang/go                  < 1.9.4                    >= 1.9.4

Description
===========

A command injection flaw was discovered in the source code build phase
because of the "go get" command, which does not block -fplugin= and
-plugin arguments.

Impact
======

A remote attacker could entice a user to process a repository
containing maliciously-crafted build instructions using "go get",
resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
process.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All Go users should upgrade to the latest version:

  # emerge --sync
  # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-lang/go-1.9.4"

References
==========
