How to fix?

Upgrade Centos:8 golang-misc 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-misc package and not the golang-misc 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.
