- https://github.com/golang/protobuf/compare/v1.5.3...v1.5.4
From the Go security announcement list;
> Version v1.33.0 of the google.golang.org/protobuf module fixes a bug in
> the google.golang.org/protobuf/encoding/protojson package which could cause
> the Unmarshal function to enter an infinite loop when handling some invalid
> inputs.
>
> This condition could only occur when unmarshaling into a message which contains
> a google.protobuf.Any value, or when the UnmarshalOptions.UnmarshalUnknown
> option is set. Unmarshal now correctly returns an error when handling these
> inputs.
>
> This is CVE-2024-24786.
In a follow-up post;
> A small correction: This vulnerability applies when the UnmarshalOptions.DiscardUnknown
> option is set (as well as when unmarshaling into any message which contains a
> google.protobuf.Any). There is no UnmarshalUnknown option.
>
> In addition, version 1.33.0 of google.golang.org/protobuf inadvertently
> introduced an incompatibility with the older github.com/golang/protobuf
> module. (https://github.com/golang/protobuf/issues/1596) Users of the older
> module should update to github.com/golang/protobuf@v1.5.4.
