Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
SurrealDB versions before 1.1.0 crash when the HTTP REST API receives an ID, DB or NS header containing certain special characters, because the header fails to parse and causes a panic. An unauthenticated client who can reach the HTTP REST API can send such a request to take down the server, causing denial of service. Upgrade to SurrealDB 1.1.0 or later. Users who cannot upgrade should limit untrusted access to the HTTP REST API and ensure the process restarts automatically after a crash.
