Oohh Go 1.24 brings os.Root, which allows you to open a directory and present its contents using the FS (filesystem) interface. It prevents access to files outside the root, meaning malicious/erroneous code will not be able to operate on parts of the filesystem that they should not be touching.

So it's a little sandboxing feature in Go's standard lib. Nice!
