Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

SurrealDB (crates.io surrealdb) versions before 3.1.0 are vulnerable. An anonymous remote caller can open many WebSocket connections to the /sql endpoint and stream frames far larger than the configured SURREAL_WEBSOCKET_MAX_MESSAGE_SIZE, because that limit is not applied there, which can exhaust memory and degrade availability. Upgrade to version 3.1.0 or later. If you cannot upgrade, block WebSocket upgrade requests to GET /sql at a reverse proxy or enforce per-connection frame size limits there.
