Machine-written summary

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

The amqp091-go Go package before 1.13.0 is affected. When a negative integer is passed to the Qos method's prefetchCount or prefetchSize parameters, it is cast to unsigned values, becoming 65535 or 4294967295, which can cause the broker to flood the consumer with messages and lead to memory exhaustion. An attacker who can change configuration or API inputs that set Qos values could trigger this denial of service. Upgrade to version 1.13.0 or later.
