description: |
    Web Sockets do not execute any AuthenticateMethod methods which may be set,
    leading to a nil pointer dereference if the returned UserData pointer is
    assumed to be non-nil, or authentication bypass.

    This issue only affects WebSockets with an AuthenticateMethod hook.
    Request handlers that do not explicitly use WebSockets are not
    vulnerable.
