Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for rust-tungstenite.

CVE-2023-43669[0]:
| The Tungstenite crate through 0.20.0 for Rust allows remote
| attackers to cause a denial of service (minutes of CPU consumption)
| via an excessive length of an HTTP header in a client handshake. The
| length affects both how many times a parse is attempted (e.g.,
| thousands of times) and the average amount of data for each parse
| attempt (e.g., millions of bytes).


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
