From the mailing list announcement:
[security] Go 1.20.7 and Go 1.19.12 are released
Hello gophers,
We have just released Go versions 1.20.7 and 1.19.12, minor point releases.
These minor releases include 1 security fixes following the security policy:
- crypto/tls: restrict RSA keys in certificates to <= 8192 bits
Extremely large RSA keys in certificate chains can cause a client/server
to expend significant CPU time verifying signatures. Limit this by
restricting the size of RSA keys transmitted during handshakes to <=
8192 bits.
Based on a survey of publicly trusted RSA keys, there are currently only
three certificates in circulation with keys larger than this, and all
three appear to be test certificates that are not actively deployed. It
is possible there are larger keys in use in private PKIs, but we target
the web PKI, so causing breakage here in the interests of increasing the
default safety of users of crypto/tls seems reasonable.
Thanks to Mateusz Poliwczak for reporting this issue.
