             Summary: [Go]
                 Key: ARROW-16759
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16759
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Go
    Affects Versions: 8.0.0, 7.0.0
            Reporter: Dominic Barnes


The packges under github.com/apache/arrow/go currently have a dependency on 
github.com/stretchr/testify v1.7.0 which has a dependency on gopkg.in/yaml.v3 
that has an outstanding security vulnerability. 
([CVE-2022-28948|https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-hp87-p4gw-j4gq])

While testify is only used during tests, this is not distinguished by the go 
toolchain and other tools like Snyk which scan the dependency chain for 
vulnerabilities. Unfortunately, due to Go's [Minimal version 
selection|[https://go.dev/ref/mod#minimal-version-selection],] this ends up 
requiring us to visit our dependencies to ensure this security vulnerability is 
addressed.
