x/vulndb: potential Go vuln in github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum: CVE-2022-29177

[GoVulnBot]

CVE-2022-29177 references github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum, which may be a Go module.

Description:
Go Ethereum is the official Golang implementation of the Ethereum protocol. Prior to version 1.10.17, a vulnerable node, if configured to use high verbosity logging, can be made to crash when handling specially crafted p2p messages sent from an attacker node. Version 1.10.17 contains a patch that addresses the problem. As a workaround, setting loglevel to default level (INFO) makes the node not vulnerable to this attack.
