Fixed In Version:		Doc Type:	---
Doc Text:	A flaw was found in the cmd/compile package in the Go standard library. A no-op interface conversion prevented the compiler from correctly identifying non-overlapping memory moves. As a result, the compiler allows unsafe memory move operations to occur at runtime, potentially causing data corruption, memory corruption or unexpected application behavior.	Story Points:	---

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-04-08 02:01:46 UTC

The compiler is meant to unwrap pointers which are the operands of a memory move; a no-op interface conversion prevented the compiler from making the correct determination about non-overlapping moves, potentially leading to memory corruption at runtime.
