Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncaught Exception via the get or try_get functions. An attacker can cause a panic and abort the calling task by sending a row with fewer fields than declared columns, leading to denial of service by exploiting a malicious or compromised server or a man-in-the-middle capable of modifying server responses. This is only exploitable if the client connects to untrusted or user-supplied servers, or if the connection can be intercepted.
