CVE-2025-61732Hinoki check available

Code injection via copied declaration comments

Published Feb 5, 2026 · Updated Aug 26, 2026

Code injection in Go cmd/cgo before 1.24.13 and 1.25.0 through 1.25.6 allows attackers to smuggle C code into generated binaries. The saveExport function in src/cmd/cgo/ast.go copies user-provided declaration comments into generated cgo AST documentation, where Go and C/C++ parsing differences expose hidden C tokens. Exploitation requires an attacker-controlled cgo source file to be compiled, after which the concealed code executes with the resulting binary's privileges.
