What is CVE-2021-34558?
The Go crypto/tls package prior to version 1.16.6 allows inadequate validation of the public key type in X.509 certificates during RSA key exchange. This shortcoming can enable a malicious TLS server to induce a panic in a TLS client, exposing applications to unexpected behaviors and potential denial of service. Users are advised to update to versions after 1.16.5 to mitigate this risk.
