  "summary": "WITHDRAWN: Malformed backend frame length causes panic in github.com/lib/pq",
  "details": "(This report has been withdrawn with reason: \"Report mistakenly added without having CVE / GHSA associated\"). github.com/lib/pq trusts the unsigned 32-bit length in every PostgreSQL backend frame and subtracts four without first checking that the wire length is at least four. A backend frame whose length is zero through three produces a negative payload length. recvMessage then slices the connection scratch buffer with that negative bound, causing an unrecovered runtime panic that terminates the calling goroutine and process.",
