This update for go1.21-openssl fixes the following issues:
Update to version 1.21.4.1 cut from the go1.21-openssl-fips
branch at the revision tagged go1.21.4-1-openssl-fips.
go1.21.4 (released 2023-11-07) includes security fixes to the
path/filepath package, as well as bug fixes to the linker, the
runtime, the compiler, and the go/types, net/http, and
runtime/cgo packages.
- security: fix CVE-2023-45283 CVE-2023-45284 path/filepath: insecure parsing of Windows paths (bsc#1216943, bsc#1216944)
- spec: update unification rules
- cmd/compile: internal compiler error: expected struct value to have type struct
- cmd/link: split text sections for arm 32-bit
- runtime: MADV_COLLAPSE causes production performance issues on Linux
- go/types, x/tools/go/ssa: panic: type param without replacement encountered
- cmd/compile: -buildmode=c-archive produces code not suitable for use in a shared object on arm64
- net/http: http2 page fails on firefox/safari if pushing resources
Initial package go1.21-openssl version 1.21.3.1 cut from the
go1.21-openssl-fips branch at the revision tagged
go1.21.3-1-openssl-fips. (jsc#SLE-18320)
- Go upstream merged branch dev.boringcrypto in go1.19+.
- In go1.x enable BoringCrypto via GOEXPERIMENT=boringcrypto.
- In go1.x-openssl enable FIPS mode (or boring mode as the
package is named) either via an environment variable
GOLANG_FIPS=1 or by virtue of booting the host in FIPS mode.
- When the operating system is operating in FIPS mode, Go
applications which import crypto/tls/fipsonly limit operations
to the FIPS ciphersuite.
- go1.x-openssl is delivered as two large patches to go1.x
applying necessary modifications from the golang-fips/go GitHub
project for the Go crypto library to use OpenSSL as the
external cryptographic library in a FIPS compliant way.
- go1.x-openssl modifies the crypto/* packages to use OpenSSL for
cryptographic operations.
- go1.x-openssl uses dlopen() to call into OpenSSL.
- SUSE RPM packaging introduces a fourth version digit go1.x.y.z
corresponding to the golang-fips/go patchset tagged revision.
- Patchset improvements can be updated independently of upstream
Go maintenance releases.
