GHSA-mp7j-qc5w-4988Moderatewebsocket-driver: Resource limit bypass via message compression### Impact If this library is used in tandem with the `permessage-deflate` extension, a WebSocket server or client can be made to accept messages that are larger than the configured maximum message size. This is because this limit is checked against the message frames' length headers, which give the size of the compressed data, not the size after decompression. This can lead to applications accepting larger messages than expected and exceeding their intended resource usage. ### Patches The issue has been patched in version 0.7.5, by checking the length of messages after they are processed b

GHSA-xv26-6w52-cph6Criticalwebsocket-driver: Message corruption via abuse of protocol length headers### Impact The frame format in draft versions of the WebSocket protocol includes a length header that allows an arbitrarily large integer to be encoded as a sequence of bytes with the high bit set. By sending an indefinite sequence of bytes with values `0x80` or above, a client can make the server parse these bytes into an ever-growing integer. Since JavaScript numbers are 64-bit floating point values, this number will eventually lose precision and lead to the subsequent payload being parsed incorrectly. ### Patches The issue has been patched in version 0.7.5 by rejecting the message if the
