# AWS EKS
Backported To: go-1.15.15-eks
Backported On: Wed, 5 Oct 2022
Backported By: rcrozean@amazon.com
Backported From: release-branch.go1.15
Source Commit: golang@0a72381
EKS Patch Source Commit: aws/eks-distro-build-tooling@1de4158

For building an internal version of go1.15, we removed the binary
information from this patch caused by ./src/archive/tar/pax-bad-hdr-large.tar.bz2
it was added to the repo:
https://github.com/aws/eks-distro-build-tooling/projects/golang/go/1.15/rpmbuild/SOURCE/pax-bad-hdr-large.tar.bz2

# Originial Information

Set a 1MiB limit on special file blocks (PAX headers, GNU long names,
GNU link names), to avoid reading arbitrarily large amounts of data
into memory.

Thanks to Adam Korczynski (ADA Logics) and OSS-Fuzz for reporting
this issue.

Fixes CVE-2022-2879
Updates golang#54853
Fixes golang#55925
