Bird-lg-go has a Fatal Out-of-Memory (OOM) Denial of Service via Unbounded JSON Decoding
### Summary The `apiHandler` (and similarly `webHandlerTelegramBot`) processes user-provided JSON payloads by directly using `json.NewDecoder(r.Body).Decode(&request)` without restricting the maximum read size. An unauthenticated remote attacker can stream an extremely large, endless JSON payload (e.g., several Gigabytes of padding) over a single T...
