How to Fix CVE-2024-1394

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Github.com/golang fips/go dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

github.com/golang-fips/go fixed: Latest secure release

Upgrade github.com/golang-fips/go to Latest secure release

github.com/golang-fips/openssl/v2 fixed: 2.0.1

Upgrade github.com/golang-fips/openssl/v2 to 2.0.1

github.com/microsoft/go-crypto-openssl fixed: Latest secure release

Upgrade github.com/microsoft/go-crypto-openssl to Latest secure release

github.com/microsoft/go-crypto-openssl/openssl fixed: 0.2.9

Upgrade github.com/microsoft/go-crypto-openssl/openssl to 0.2.9

Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

inspect dependencies for github.com/golang-fips/go

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2024-1394, inspect your project dependencies for Github.com/golang fips/go:

inspect dependencies for github.com/golang-fips/go

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Github.com/golang fips/go in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.0.1), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption, where the product does not properly control the allocation and maintenance of a limited resource. In Github.com/golang fips/go, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Using crafted public RSA keys which are not compliant with SP 800-56B can cause a small memory leak when encrypting and verifying payloads. An attacker can leverage this flaw to gradually erode available memory to the point where the host crashes for lack of resources. Upon restart the attacker would have to begin again, but nevertheless there is the potential to deny service.
