CVE-2026-94447 PUBLISHED

Checksum database bypass for golang.org/toolchain in cmd/go

Assigner: Go
Reserved: 21.09.2026 Published: 08.10.2026 Updated: 08.10.2026

Previously, a user operating inside of a malicious Go project that defines a bogus golang.org/toolchain go.sum entry and operates a malicious GOMODPROXY the user chooses to use can bypass the intended checksum. We now ensure that golang.org/toolchain always goes to the network for the canonical checksum.
