Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
GHSA-xwwf-m8fg-p9q2: the Go package github.com/rabbitmq/amqp091-go before 1.13.0 does not enforce the AMQP minimum frame size of 4096 bytes during connection negotiation, so it accepts a server-advertised FrameMax as low as 1 byte. An attacker who controls or intercepts the broker a client connects to can force every message to be split into tiny frames, exhausting CPU and freezing the application. Upgrade to version 1.13.0 or later.
