CVE-2019-6486 - DoS vulnerability in the crypto/elliptic implementations

[aaslamin]

Golang issue: golang/go#29903

A DoS vulnerability in the crypto/elliptic implementations of the P-521 and P-384 elliptic curves may let an attacker craft inputs that consume excessive amounts of CPU. These inputs might be delivered via TLS handshakes, X.509 certificates, JWT tokens, ECDH shares or ECDSA signatures. In some cases, if an ECDH private key is reused more than once, the attack can also lead to key recovery. This issue is CVE-2019-6486.

As a result of this, the Golang team has released Go 1.11.5 and Go 1.10.8.

I think all we need to do is release new binaries built against 1.11.5
