Proposing a fix for something flagged in
go.mod. It is around line 1.The vulnerability CVE‑2026‑56864 is real: versions of golang.org/x/mod <0.40.0 allow a malicious GOSUMDB to serve module content not recorded in the transparency log, enabling a coordinated GOPROXY to feed undetected malicious code. This can lead to supply‑chain compromise of Go modules. The fix is to upgrade to a version ≥0.40.0 where the issue is patched.
Updates golang.org/x/mod from vulnerable version 0.38.0 to the fixed version 0.40.0, addressing CVE-2026-56864.
