2) Infinite loop
EUVDB-ID: #VU74573
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24537
CWE-ID:
CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop when calling any of the Parse functions on Go source code which contains //line directives with very large line numbers. A remote attacker can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.

3) Code Injection
EUVDB-ID: #VU74574
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 7.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24538
CWE-ID:
CWE-94 - Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in html/template when handling JavaScript templates that contain backticks in code. If a template contains a Go template action within a JavaScript template literal, the contents of the action can be used to terminate the literal, injecting arbitrary JavaScript code into the Go template.
