# Bump Go version
`govulncheck` from the bazel `check` target will fail if our code is vulnerable, which is often the case when a patch version was released with security fixes.

## Steps

Replace "1.xx.x" with the new version in [WORKSPACE.bazel](/WORKSPACE.bazel):

```starlark
go_register_toolchains(version = "1.xx.x")
```

			`## Steps`

bazel: use prebuilt Go toolchain (go.dev/dl) (#2796) We had to switch to a Go toolchain from nixpkgs, since prebuilt Go toolchain versions were not usable on NixOS. Since Go 1.21, the prebuilt Go toolchain is statically linked and works out of the box.
