Last modified
CVE-2018-7187 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The "go get" implementation in Go 1.9.4, when the -insecure command-line option is used, does not validate the import path (get/vcs.go only checks for "://" anywhere in the string), which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands via a crafted web site.. EPSS estimates a 63.23% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
