GHSA-jppx-rxg9-jmrx

golang.org/x/crypto doesn't enforce invoking key constraints

Quick fix

GHSA-jppx-rxg9-jmrx — golang.org/x/crypto: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below. 

go get golang.org/x/crypto@v0.52.0

Details

The in-memory keyring returned by NewKeyring() silently accepted keys with the ConfirmBeforeUse constraint but never enforced it. The key would sign without any confirmation prompt, with no indication to the caller that the constraint was not in effect. NewKeyring() now returns an error when unsupported constraints are requested.
