These minor releases include 1 security fixes following the security policy:
- net/http: insufficient sanitization of Host header
The HTTP/1 client did not fully validate the contents of the Host header.
A maliciously crafted Host header could inject additional headers or
entire requests. The HTTP/1 client now refuses to send requests containing
an invalid Request.Host or Request.URL.Host value.
Thanks to Bartek Nowotarski for reporting this issue.
Includes security fixes for CVE-2023-29406 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/60374
