Description
Code injection in the go command with cgo before Go 1.14.12 and Go 1.15.5 allows arbitrary code execution at build time via a malicious unquoted symbol name in a linked object file.
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. This flaw allows an attacker to create a repository that includes malicious pre-built object files that could execute arbitrary code when downloaded and run via `go get` or `go build` while building a Go project. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability.
