    Summary: Denial of service via ignored unknown fields in github.com/facebook/fbthrift

    Details: Skip ignores unknown fields, rather than failing. A malicious user can craft small messages with unknown fields which can take significant resources to parse. If a server accepts messages from an untrusted user, it may be used as a denial of service vector.
