Is Go vulnerable for buffer overflow

Question

I know languages like c# aren't vulnerable to buffer overflows unless you marshal or use unsafe code. But is go vulnerable for buffer overflows?

Answer 1

Go checks for bounds in strings, arrays and slices so it is not vulnerable as long as you are not playing around with unsafe package.

Answer 2

After a quick search I found this link: http://0xdabbad00.com/2015/04/12/looking_for_security_trouble_spots_in_go_code/

It states that golang is safe from most "known" attacks ("known" as in used in C). For instance, the fact that there is no pointer arithmetics, no manual memory management make it less prone to errors that would lead to "exploitable" code.

I'm no expert of golang but it seems like a well thought language with a good environment (std lib, compiler, etc...)
