Reachable identified a production path through internal/handlers/cve.go that uses vulnerable golang.org/x/text v0.3.7. This change updates only that dependency to the first fixed release and locks in the existing route guard with focused coverage.

  • Dependency remediation

    • Bump golang.org/x/text from v0.3.7 to v0.3.8
    • Refresh go.sum to the resolved fixed checksums only
  • Reachable path preservation

    • Keep the existing ParseLanguage allowlist gate in front of language.Parse
    • Avoid widening scope beyond the selected remediation shard
  • Regression coverage

    • Add focused handler tests for:
      • accepted allowed tags
      • rejected unsupported tags
if !safety.AllowedLanguageTag(tag) {
	http.Error(w, "unsupported language tag", http.StatusBadRequest)
	return
}

parsed, err := language.Parse(tag)
