Log Message:
go118: update to 1.18.8
This release includes 1 security fixes following the security policy:
syscall, os/exec: unsanitized NUL in environment variables
On Windows, syscall.StartProcess and os/exec.Cmd did not properly check for
invalid environment variable values. A malicious environment variable value
could exploit this behavior to set a value for a different environment
variable. For example, the environment variable string "A=B\x00C=D" set the
variables "A=B" and "C=D".
