Summary

A vulnerability in SWIG allows code smuggling and arbitrary code execution at build time when file names contain 'cgo' and are used with crafted payloads, due to a trust layer bypass.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code during the build process, potentially leading to system compromise and data theft.
