Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream golang-golang-x-text package and not the golang-golang-x-text package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

An attacker may cause a denial of service by crafting an Accept-Language header which ParseAcceptLanguage will take significant time to parse.
