FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.

CVE-2022-28131 [HIGH] CWE-1325 golang: encoding/xml: stack exhaustion in Decoder.Skip
golang: encoding/xml: stack exhaustion in Decoder.Skip
Uncontrolled recursion in Decoder.Skip in encoding/xml before Go 1.17.12 and Go 1.18.4 allows an attacker to cause a panic due to stack exhaustion via a deeply nested XML document.
A flaw was found in golang encoding/xml. When calling Decoder, Skip while parsing a deeply nested XML document, a panic can occur due to stack exhaustion and allows an attacker to impact system availability.
Statement: The vulnerability exists in the calling of the function decoder.skip to a deeply nested XML document. Although the vulnerability exists, it may require that the application accept deeply nested XML from untrusted sources and specifically calls Decoder.Skip on it. In many deployments, that code path might not even be reachable or exposed to
