CVE-2020-24553 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Centos:8 golang-docs to version 0:1.14.12-1.module+el8.3.0+8784+380394dc or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream golang-docs package and not the golang-docs package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
Go before 1.14.8 and 1.15.x before 1.15.1 allows XSS because text/html is the default for CGI/FCGI handlers that lack a Content-Type header.
