Go 1.26.5 release notes security fixes crypto/tls os CVE-2026-39822 CVE-2026-42505 OSV
💡 Result:
Go 1.26.5 was released on July 7, 2026, and includes security fixes for two vulnerabilities in the standard library [1][2]. The release addresses the following security issues: 1. CVE-2026-39822 (os: Root escape via symlink plus trailing slash): On Unix systems, the os.Root functionality improperly handled symlinks when a path ended in a trailing slash. This allowed an attacker to escape the designated root directory by using a symlink as the final path component [3][4][5]. The fix ensures that such paths are correctly sanitized before being passed to openat [3]. 2. CVE-2026-42505 (crypto/tls: Encrypted Client Hello privacy leak): The implementation of Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) leaked pre-shared key (PSK) identities during the handshake within the unencrypted client hello. This vulnerability could allow a passive network observer to de-anonymize the server's hostname even when ECH was intended to protect it [2][3][6]. These fixes are also included in Go 1.25.12, which was released concurrently [2][3]. Further details can be found in the official Go issue tracker (issues 79005 for CVE-2026-39822 and 79282 for CVE-2026-42505) and on the OSV database [2][5][7][8].

Go command toolchain directive GOTOOLCHAIN local auto toolchain selection official documentation
💡 Result:
The GOTOOLCHAIN environment variable and the toolchain directive are components of Go's toolchain management system, introduced to provide automatic, version-aware toolchain selection [1][2]. GOTOOLCHAIN Environment Variable The GOTOOLCHAIN environment variable controls how the go command selects and potentially downloads a Go toolchain to execute [3][1]. It can be configured globally using go env -w [3]. Common settings include: - auto (Default): Allows the go command to automatically switch to a newer toolchain if the project's go.mod file requires a version higher than the currently installed Go toolchain [3][1]. It effectively acts as local+auto [3]. - local: Forces the go command to use only the locally installed, bundled Go toolchain [3][1]. If a module requires a newer version, the command will fail rather than downloading a new one [1][4]. - path: Forces the go command to use a toolchain found in the system PATH. It does not download new toolchains [5][6]. - version+auto (e.g., go1.23.0+auto): Directs the go command to use the specified version by default, but still permits automatic upgrades to newer versions if required by the project's configuration [3][2]. go.mod Directives The go command also reads specific directives in the go.mod file to influence toolchain selection: - go directive: Sets the minimum Go version required to build the module [7][4]. Starting in Go 1.21, if the current toolchain is older than this version, the go command will refuse to build the module and (depending on GOTOOLCHAIN settings) may attempt to download a compatible version [3][7]. - toolchain directive: Explicitly suggests a minimum Go toolchain version to use [7][4]. This is useful when you want to use a newer toolchain than the minimum version required by the go directive (e.g., to benefit from newer compiler features or performance improvements) [2]. Mechanism When the go command starts, it evaluates the GOTOOLCHAIN setting and the go/toolchain lines in the go.mod file [1]. If the current (bundled) toolchain is insufficient to satisfy the requirements, and GOTOOLCHAIN allows it (e.g., set to auto), the go command will download the necessary toolchain as a special module (golang.org/toolchain) and re-exec the command using that version [3][4][2]. This process is transparent to the user, acting similarly to language managers like rustup or nvm [2].

Pin production builds to go1.26.5.
Production Tekton builds override BASE_IMAGE with the mutable rhel_9_1.26 tag, and build/Dockerfile defaults to go-toolset:1.26.3. Pin each builder image to Go 1.26.5 by digest, or enforce GOTOOLCHAIN=go1.26.5. Retain SBOM, provenance, and signature checks for the resulting images.
