Machine-written summary

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

Apache Thrift's Python, Go, PHP and Java bindings are affected in versions before 0.24.0, including the Go module github.com/apache/thrift, the Maven package org.apache.thrift:libthrift, the Packagist package apache/thrift, and the PyPI package thrift. The source describes an infinite loop with an unreachable exit condition but gives few details about the trigger or the required access. Users should upgrade to version 0.24.0, which fixes the issue.
