AI-suggested

Upgrade the RabbitMQ amqp091-go client to version 1.13.0 or later, where this issue is fixed. The fix enforces the protocol minimum FrameMax size during connection negotiation, preventing maliciously small frame sizes from being accepted. No other mitigations are indicated.

Description

RabbitMQ amqp091-go is a Go AMQP 0.9.1 client. Prior to 1.13.0, Connection.openTune in connection.go accepts a server-advertised FrameMax below the AMQP frameMinSize value of 4096 bytes because the connection negotiation loop does not enforce the protocol minimum. A malicious or compromised AMQP broker can therefore advertise an extremely small FrameMax, causing later client publications to be fragmented into excessive numbers of frames and write operations. This can consume CPU and stall the client or its host. This issue is fixed in version 1.13.0.
