I know nothing about Go or IP, but i do know Erlang where atoms (= interned strings) are a little bit of a security risk because it makes it very easy for an attacker to cause out-of-memory by flooding an endpoint that converts input strings to atoms with random data.
Is that a risk here? Could i connect to a Go service that uses this library with a patched IP client and somehow push random data into that "zone" string and crash the server?
