CVE-2025-61729 found in golang/stdlib@v1.22.7
Important
Risk: 2.12 (Low)
CVSS: 7.5
Description
Within HostnameError.Error(), when constructing an error string, there is no limit to the number of hosts that will be printed out. Furthermore, the error string is constructed by repeated string concatenation, leading to quadratic runtime. Therefore, a certificate provided by a malicious actor can result in excessive resource consumption.
Affected component
The vulnerability is in pkg:golang/stdlib@v1.22.7, found in artifacts pkg:oci/k8s-tools?repository_url=registry.opencode.de/open-code/oci/k8s-tools&tag=main-amd64, pkg:oci/k8s-tools?repository_url=registry.opencode.de/open-code/oci/k8s-tools&arch=amd64&tag=main-minimal-amd64.
Recommended fix
Upgrade to version v1.24.11 or later.
# Update all golang packages
go get -u ./...
# Update only this package
go get stdlib@v1.24.11 Additional guidance for mitigating vulnerabilities
