cmd/go/internal/work: sanitize flags before invoking 'pkg-config'
The addition of CgoPkgConfig allowed execution with flags not matching the safelist. In order to prevent potential arbitrary code execution at build time, ensure that flags are validated prior to invoking the 'pkg-config' binary. Thank you to RyotaK (https://ryotak.net) of GMO Flatt Security Inc. for reporting this issue.
