<summary>Recommended update for go1.18-openssl</summary>
<description>This update for go1.18-openssl fixes the following issues:
Initial package go1.18-openssl version 1.18.6.1. (jsc#SLE-18320)
* This package contains a fork of the Go toolchain dev.boringcrypto
branch and necessary modifications from the golang-fips/go GitHub
project for the Go crypto library to use an external cryptographic
library in a FIPS 140 compliant way.
* Modifies the crypto/* packages to use OpenSSL for cryptographic
operations.
* Uses dlopen() to call into OpenSSL.
* FIPS 140 mode (or boring mode as the package is named) is enabled
either via an environment variable GOLANG_FIPS=1 or by virtue
of the host being in FIPS 140 mode.
* When the operating system is operating in FIPS 140 mode, Go
applications which import crypto/tls/fipsonly limit operations
to the FIPS ciphersuite.
* SUSE RPM packaging introduces a fourth version digit go1.x.y.z
corresponding to the golang-fips/go patchset tagged revision
which can be updated independently of upstream Go maintenance
releases.
