Description

Govulncheck reports known vulnerabilities that affect Go code. It uses static analysis of source code or a binary's symbol table to narrow down reports to only those that could affect the application.

By default, govulncheck makes requests to the Go vulnerability database at https://vuln.go.dev. Requests to the vulnerability database contain only module paths with vulnerabilities already known to the database, not code or other properties of your program. See https://vuln.go.dev/privacy.html for more. Use the -db flag to specify a different database, which must implement the specification at https://go.dev/security/vuln/database.

Govulncheck looks for vulnerabilities in Go programs using a specific build configuration. For analyzing source code, that configuration is the Go version specified by the "go" command found on the PATH. For binaries, the build configuration is the one used to build the binary. Note that different build configurations may have different known vulnerabilities.
