The `go.sum` file contains cryptographic hashes of the +module's direct and indirect dependencies. `go.sum` may be empty or absent +if the module has no dependencies or if all dependencies are replaced with +local directories using [`replace` directives](#go.mod-replace). + +Each line in `go.sum` has three fields separated by spaces: a module path, +a version (possibly ending with `/go.mod`), and a hash. + +* The module path is the name of the module the hash belongs to. +* The version is the version of the module the hash belongs to. If the version + ends with `/go.mod`, the hash is for the module's `go.mod` file only; + otherwise, the hash is for the files within the module's `.zip` file. +* The hash column consists of an algorithm name (like `h1`) and a base64-encoded + cryptographic hash, separated by a colon (`:`). Currently, SHA-256 (`h1`) is + the only supported hash algorithm. If a vulnerability in SHA-256 is discovered + in the future, support will be added for another algorithm (named `h2` and + so on). + +When the `go` command downloads a module `.mod` or `.zip` file into the [module +cache](#module-cache), it computes a hash and checks that the hash matches the +corresponding hash in the main module's `go.sum` file. For `.mod` files, the +file contents are hashed. For `.zip` files, the files within the archive are +hashed. The hash is not affected by file ordering, compression, alignment, or +metadata.

See +[`golang.org/x/mod/sumdb/dirhash`](https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/mod/sumdb/dirhash?tab=doc) +for hash implementation details. + +If the computed hash does not match the corresponding hash in `go.sum`, the `go` +command reports a security error. If the hash is not present in `go.sum`, the +`go` command looks up the correct hash in the [checksum +database](#checksum-database) (unless the module matches `GONOSUMDB` or +`GOSUMDB` is set to `off`; see [Environment +variables](#environment-variables)). If no mismatch is detected, the `go` +command adds the hash to `go.sum`. + +The `go` command does not automatically verify modules already in the cache. By +default, files and directories in the module cache have read-only permissions to +prevent accidental changes. The [`go mod verify`](#go-mod-verify) command may be +used to check that `.zip` files and extracted directories in the module cache +match hashes recorded when they were downloaded. + +The `go.sum` file may contain hashes for multiple versions of a module. The `go` +command may need to load `go.mod` files from multiple versions of a dependency +in order to perform [minimal version selection](#minimal-version-selection). +`go.sum` may also contain hashes for module versions that aren't needed anymore +(for example, after an upgrade). [`go mod tidy`](#go-mod-tidy) will add missing +hashes and will remove unnecessary hashes from `go.sum`. ### Checksum database diff --git a/content/static/static.go b/content/static/static.go index

Pseudo-versions\x20may\x20refer\x20to\x20revisions\x20for\x20which\x20no\x20semantic\x20version\x0atags\x20are\x20available.\x20They\x20may\x20be\x20used\x20to\x20test\x0acommits\x20before\x20creating\x20version\x20tags,\x20for\x20example,\x20on\x20a\x20development\x20branch.

\x0a

Each\x20pseudo-version\x20has\x20three\x20parts:

\x0a
    \x0a
  • A\x20base\x20version\x20prefix\x20(vX.0.0\x20or\x20vX.Y.Z-0),\x20which\x20is\x20either\x20derived\x20from\x20a\x0asemantic\x20version\x20tag\x20that\x20precedes\x20the\x20revision\x20or\x20vX.0.0\x20if\x20there\x20is\x20no\x0asuch\x20tag.

  • \x0a
  • A\x20revision\x20identifier\x20(abcdefabcdef),\x20which\x20is\x20a\x2012-character\x20prefix\x20of\x20the\x0acommit\x20hash,\x20or\x20in\x20Subversion,\x20a\x20zero-padded\x20revision\x20number.

\x0a

These\x20forms\x20give\x20pseudo-versions\x20two\x20useful\x20properties:

\x0a
    \x0a
  • Pseudo-versions\x20with\x20known\x20base\x20versions\x20sort\x20higher\x20than\x20those\x20versions\x20but\x0alower\x20than\x20other\x20pre-release\x20for\x20later\x20versions.

  • Pseudo-versions\x20with\x20the\x20same\x20base\x20version\x20prefix\x20sort\x20chronologically.
