Affected: body-parser

Impact: In body-parser versions prior to 1.20.6 (1.x line) and 2.3.0 (2.x line), when the parser is configured with an invalid limit option value such as an unparseable string or NaN, bytes.parse returns null and the request body size check is silently skipped. Applications that rely on limit as their primary safeguard against oversized request bodies will accept arbitrarily large payloads, leading to excessive memory and CPU usage and denial of service. Patches: This issue is fixed in body-parser 1.20.6 and 2.3.0. After the fix, invalid limit values throw a clear error at parser construction time instead of silently disabling enforcement, while null and undefined continue to fall back to the default limit of 100kb. Workarounds: Validate the limit value before passing it to body-parser. For example, parse the value at startup and reject any configuration where the result is null or a non-finite number.

### Impact

`channelBinding=require` connections can be silently downgraded from `SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS` (with channel binding) to plain `SCRAM-SHA-256` (without it), losing the man-in-the-middle protection the setting is meant to guarantee. An attacker who can intercept the TLS connection triggers the downgrade with a certificate whose signature algorithm has no `tls-server-end-point` channel-binding hash. Examples are `Ed25519`, `Ed448`, and post-quantum algorithms.

Two issues combine in releases 42.7.4 through 42.7.11:

1. The bundled `com.ongres.scram:scram-client` (3.1 or 3.2) returns an empty byte array instead of failing when it cannot derive the binding hash for such a certificate. This is the library issue tracked as [GHSA-p9jg-fcr6-3mhf](https://github.com/ongres/scram/security/advisories/GHSA-p9jg-fcr6-3mhf). 2. pgJDBC does not enforce `channelBinding=require` where it matters. `ScramAuthenticator` checks only that the server *advertised* a `-PLUS` mechanism; it neither rejects the empty binding nor checks that the *negotiated* mechanism uses channel binding. The connection therefore downgrades silently, and would do so even against a fixed `scram-client`, because the missing enforcement is in pgJDBC's own code.

Only connections that set `channelBinding=require` are affected. Under the default `prefer` policy, and under `allow` or `disable`, falling back to plain SCRAM is the documented behaviour. Releases before 42.7.4 are unaffected, because they do not support c…
