Below is the message reported by the analyzer for this snippet of code. Beware that the analyzer only reports the first issue it finds, so please do not limit your consideration to the contents of the below message.

```go

switch host.Status {
case model.INSTALLING:
hs.log(ctx, host.Name).Info("Host in status INSTALLING, moving to DOWN")
hs.UpdateHostStatus(ctx, &host, model.DOWN)
case model.UP:
// Set host status to INITIALIZING during intialization
hs.UpdateHostStatus(ctx, &host, model.INITIALIZING)
go func(h *model.Host) {
defer wg.Done()
wg.Add(1)
_, err := hs.connManager.Connect(ctx, address)
if err == nil {
hs.UpdateHostStatus(ctx, h, model.UP)
} else {
hs.log(ctx, h.Name).Error("Failed to initialize host connection")
errors = append(errors, err)
hs.UpdateHostStatus(ctx, h, model.DOWN)
}
}(&host)
}
}

No path was found through the callgraph that could lead to a function which writes a pointer argument.
The following graphviz dot graph describes paths through the callgraph that could lead to a function which passes a pointer to third-party code:
digraph G {
"(UpdateHostStatus, 3)" -> {"(updateHostStatus, 3)";}
"(updateHostStatus, 3)" -> {"(UpdateHost, 2)";}
"(UpdateHost, 2)" -> {}
}
