CVE-2024-45338 Go Networking vulnerability
Title: Go Networking vulnerability
Summary: golang-golang-x-net could be made to crash if it received specially crafted
network traffic.
Guido Vranken discovered that Go Networking handled input to the Parse
functions inefficiently. An attacker could possibly use this issue to
cause denial of service. This update addresses the issue in the
golang-golang-x-net and golang-golang-x-net-dev packages, as well as the
library vendored within adsys and juju-core.
Instructions: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

An attacker can craft an input to the Parse functions that would be processed non-linearly with respect to its length, resulting in extremely slow parsing. This could cause a denial of service.
A flaw was found in golang.org/x/net/html. This flaw allows an attacker to craft input to the parse functions that would be processed non-linearly with respect to its length, resulting in extremely slow parsing. This issue can cause a denial of service.
Statement: This vulnerability is rated as an Important severity because an attacker can craft malicious input that causes the parsing functions to process data non-linearly, resulting in significant delays which leads to a denial of service by exhausting

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.
