Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insecure Randomness in the form of generating stateless reset-tokens based on HMAC connection ID. An attacker in a MitM position can deduce token material by observing QUIC headers after a source CID rotation, and can cause service disruption by sending spoofed stateless reset packets.
