| Description | RabbitMQ amqp091-go is a Go AMQP 0.9.1 client. Prior to 1.13.0, Channel.dispatch in channel.go, confirms.confirm in confirms.go, and Connection.dispatch0 in connection.go synchronously send publisher confirmations, flow-control events, consumer cancellations, returned messages, including NotifyConfirm events and connection block notifications, to application-provided channels. If a listener channel is unbuffered, full, or not drained promptly, the sole reader goroutine blocks and stops processing frames, acknowledgments, deliveries, and heartbeats. Broker-driven event bursts can therefore cause connection stalls, missed heartbeats, deadlocks, and disconnection. This issue is fixed in version 1.13.0. |
