Crash due to uncontrolled recursion in protobuf crate

Details
Package protobuf
Version 3.7.1
URL stepancheg/rust-protobuf#749
Date 2024-12-12

Affected version of this crate did not properly parse unknown fields when parsing a user-supplied input.

This allows an attacker to cause a stack overflow when parsing the mssage on untrusted data.

See advisory page for additional details.

Only a dependency because of pbf_font_tools => how we handle fonts.
Since users can not upload them, only admins can this is not a security issue for us.

If an attacker has filesystem-write access, there is much simpler ways to affect avaliability...
