Machine-written summary

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

kin-openapi, Go module github.com/getkin/kin-openapi, versions before 0.145.0, is vulnerable: a request with a non-standard or differently cased HTTP method (such as PROPFIND or lowercase get) sent to an existing static path behind the openapi3filter ValidationHandler causes a panic. No authentication is needed, so a remote attacker can trigger repeated per-connection panics and log growth, causing denial of service. Upgrade to version 0.145.0 or later.
