Machine-written summary

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

GoGo Protobuf (github.com/gogo/protobuf) versions before 1.3.2 are affected by a missing index validation flaw in the unmarshal plugin. The source gives few details about what an attacker must do or what exactly results from exploitation. Upgrade to version 1.3.2 or later, where the issue is fixed.
