Summary

Thomas Shadwell talks about how distinct, exploitable misuse patterns arise in software languages, and through example in Go – in particular a quietly prevalent and worryingly effective denial of service attack on Go systems affecting the Go toolchain itself – hopes to begin a greater discourse on the language's distinct security characteristics.
