### Patches
Yes. Please upgrade to v1.2.6.

### Workarounds
A workaround is to restrict the path prefix to the “GET” method. As shown below
“`
func main() {
r := mux.NewRouter()

r.PathPrefix(“/swagger/”).Handler(httpSwagger.Handler(
httpSwagger.URL(“https://localhost:1323/swagger/doc.json”), //The url pointing to API definition
httpSwagger.DeepLinking(true),
httpSwagger.DocExpansion(“none”),
httpSwagger.DomID(“#swagger-ui”),
)).Methods(http.MethodGet)
“`
