Subject: [PATCH v2 10/24] commands: go: add security config option
Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2025 15:53:30 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250917-security-policies-v2-10-f30769a3ff51@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250917-security-policies-v2-0-f30769a3ff51@pengutronix.de>

From: Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>

The go command doesn't do any signature verification and allows
executing arbitrary code. Add a security option, so a policy can disable
this command at runtime.
