All changes: +- Enforce a configurable upper bound on allocations driven by network input +- Default to a safe value that is generous enough for real traffic +- Return an error (not panic, not silently discard) when the limit is exceeded +- Are covered by a RED test that feeds the exploit input and asserts the unsafe outcome cannot occur + +No existing behavior is broken for well-formed traffic within the default limits. + +## Design + +### Family A — Decompression output limit + +**Files:** `vector/src/sources/util/http/encoding.rs`, `vector/src/sources/logstash.rs`, +and the SLDC decoder used by the WEF handler. + +**Root cause:** `read_to_end` is called into a bare `Vec` with no `.take(limit)` guard. +The encoding loop in `util/http/encoding.rs` also iterates over comma-stacked `Content-Encoding` +tokens, multiplying the expansion ratio per stage. + +**Fix:** + +1. Add `max_decompressed_bytes: u64` parameter to `util/http/encoding.rs::decode()`. + Default: **256 MiB** (exposed as `max_decompressed_bytes` config field on each source that + calls it; wired via the source's existing `HttpConfig` or equivalent). + +2. Wrap every `read_to_end` call with `.take(max_decompressed_bytes)`: + ```rust + MultiGzDecoder::new(body.reader()) + .take(max_decompressed_bytes) + .read_to_end(&mut decoded)?; + if decoded.len() as u64 >= max_decompressed_bytes { + return Err(ErrorMessage::new(StatusCode::PAYLOAD_TOO_LARGE, "...")); + } + ``` + For `zstd`, replace `decode_all`/`copy_decode` with `zstd::Decoder::new(body.reader())?.take(limit).read_to_end(...)`. + +3. Track cumulative decoded size across encoding layers. After each decode step, add + `decoded.len()` to a running total and reject if it exceeds the limit. This prevents + an attacker from stacking `gzip,gzip,...` to multiply past any per-stage cap. + +4. Apply the same `.take(limit)` pattern in the logstash compressed frame handler + (`vector/src/sources/logstash.rs`) and the SLDC decoder. + +5. Add `max_decompressed_bytes` to the relevant source config structs + (`DatadogAgentConfig`, `HttpConfig`, `LogstashConfig`, `WefHandlerConfig`) with the + 256 MiB default. + +### Family B — Framer buffer bound + +**Files:** `vector/lib/codecs/src/decoding/framing/newline_delimited.rs`, +`vector/src/sources/socket/tcp.rs`, `vector/src/sources/statsd/mod.rs`. + +**Root cause:** `NewlineDelimitedDecoder::new()` wraps `CharacterDelimitedDecoder::new(b'\n')` +which defaults `max_length: usize::MAX`. Neither `socket::tcp::TcpConfig` nor +`statsd::TcpConfig` exposes a `max_length` knob, so operators cannot harden the default. + +**Fix:** + +1. Change `NewlineDelimitedDecoder::new()` to call `new_with_max_length(default_max_length())` + (100 KiB, matching UDP and syslog source defaults). + +2. Add `max_length: Option` to `socket::tcp::TcpConfig` and `statsd::TcpConfig`, + defaulting to `Some(default_max_length())`. Thread it into the decoder via + `NewlineDelimitedDecoder::new_with_max_length(...)`. + +3. Verify that `CharacterDelimitedDecoder::decode` already discards oversized frames (it + does — the `buf.len() > self.max_length` branch at line 150). No logic change needed there. + +### Family C — GELF chunk-reassembly + +**File:** `vector/lib/codecs/src/decoding/framing/chunked_gelf.rs`. + +**Root cause:** Two independent issues: +- `pending_messages_limit` and `max_length` both default to `None`, so the per-decoder + `HashMap` is unbounded. +- One `tokio::spawn(sleep(5s))` is issued per new `message_id`, making task count + O(pending messages) instead of O(1). + +**Fix:** + +1. Change `ChunkedGelfDecoderOptions` defaults: + - `pending_messages_limit: Option` → default `Some(5_000)` + - `max_length: Option` → default `Some(1_048_576)` (1 MiB) + +2. Replace per-id `tokio::spawn(sleep(timeout))` with a single + `tokio_util::time::DelayQueue`-based reaper task per decoder instance. The reaper + owns a `DelayQueue` (keyed by `message_id`) and processes expirations in a + single background loop, removing stale entries from the shared `HashMap`. The + per-id `JoinHandle` field on `MessageState` is removed. + +3. Apply the `max_length` check on the chunk payload **before** inserting into `MessageState` + so oversized chunks are rejected without allocating storage. + +4. Move the `pending_messages_limit` check to after `state_lock.contains_key(&message_id)` + so in-flight reassemblies for already-tracked messages are not rejected when the limit + is reached. + +### Family D — STCP bounds + +**Files:** `vector/lib/observo/stcp/src/stcp/stcp_decoder.rs`, +`vector/lib/observo/stcp/src/stcp/stcp.rs`. + +The stcp crate already has `max_channel_headers`, `max_fields_per_event`, and `max_event_size` +parameters. The issues are: + +- **OBE-11234 (RegisterChannel header loop):** Verify the `max_channel_headers` bound is + enforced before allocating the per-header `Vec` entry, not after parsing it. If the check + is post-parse, move it to pre-allocation. + +- **OBE-11238 (STCP frame buffer):** Verify `max_event_size` is applied to the full frame + buffer, not only to individual event fields. If the frame accumulation buffer is unbounded, + add a size check after each `BytesMut` append. + +- **OBE-11555 (ack write stall):** The ack write to a slow/non-reading peer blocks + indefinitely while holding a shared request-limiter permit. Add a write deadline: + wrap the ack write with `tokio::time::timeout(Duration::from_secs(30), ack.write_all(...))`. + On timeout, drop the connection rather than blocking the permit. + +- **OBE-11556 (per-line clone):** Eliminate the unnecessary per-line deep-clone of the + full event frame in the decoder. Use `Arc` sharing or a reference where the clone serves + no functional purpose. + +## Acceptance Criteria + +Each criterion must be covered by a RED test that feeds the exact exploit input and asserts +the memory-unsafe outcome cannot occur (not just "no error"). + +1. **When** a TCP `socket` or `statsd` source receives a stream of bytes with no newline, + **the system shall** disconnect the client and discard the frame once the buffer exceeds + `max_length` (default 100 KiB), and not grow the `BytesMut` beyond that bound. + +2. **When** an HTTP POST to a `datadog_agent` or `opentelemetry` source contains a + `Content-Encoding: gzip` body whose decompressed size exceeds `max_decompressed_bytes` + (default 256 MiB), **the system shall** return HTTP 413 and not allocate the full + decompressed payload. + +3. **When** the same request contains stacked encodings (`Content-Encoding: gzip, gzip`) + and the cumulative decompressed size exceeds `max_decompressed_bytes`, **the system shall** + return HTTP 413 after the first stage that crosses the cumulative limit. + +4. **When** a GELF UDP source receives datagrams with unique `message_id`s beyond + `pending_messages_limit` (default 5,000), **the system shall** reject the excess datagrams + with a logged error and not grow the reassembly `HashMap` beyond the limit. + +5. **When** the GELF reassembly timeout elapses for a partial message, **the system shall** + clean it up using the single reaper task, not a per-message tokio task. (Assert task + count stays O(1) relative to pending message count.) + +6. **While** an STCP peer is not reading ack responses, **the system shall** terminate the + write attempt after the ack timeout (30 s) and drop the connection without holding the + shared request-limiter permit indefinitely. + +7. **If** an STCP `RegisterChannel` message contains more headers than `max_channel_headers`, + **the system shall** reject the frame before allocating storage for the excess headers. + +8. **If** an STCP frame buffer grows beyond `max_event_size`, **the system shall** reject + the frame at the point of accumulation, not only after full parse. + +9. **When** a logstash source receives a compressed frame whose decompressed output exceeds + the configured limit, **the system shall** close the connection with an error and not + allocate the full decompressed payload. + +10. **The system shall** not regress any existing passing tests for `socket`, `statsd`, + `gelf`, `logstash`, `datadog_agent`, `opentelemetry`, or `stcp` sources under normal + (within-limit) traffic. + +## Out of Scope + +- OBE-10715: file-sink path traversal (separate PR) +- OBE-11558: array-root condition panic (separate PR) +- OBE-10717: stale/duplicate ticket; Jira close only, no code change required beyond what + the decompression family fix already covers +- Other sinks/sources using `Template::render` for path/key generation (noted for audit, + not in scope here) +- OS-level firewall rules or admission controls (deployment concern, not code) + +## Risks & Open Questions + +- **STCP crate scope:** OBE-11234, OBE-11238, OBE-11555, OBE-11556 are in `lib/observo/stcp`. + The exact allocation sites need confirmation by reading the full stcp decoder before + coding. If `max_channel_headers` is already enforced pre-allocation, OBE-11234 may be a + false positive — needs spike.

Status: **Deferred**. + +- **Breaking change for socket/statsd:** Operators who intentionally receive frames larger + than 100 KiB on TCP socket/statsd sources will need to set `max_length` explicitly. + This is a behavior change (previously silently accepted; now discards with a log). + Status: **Accepted** — the prior behavior was unsafe; the new default is documented. + +## Testing + +- Unit tests: one RED test per acceptance criterion, placed alongside the changed module +- Integration: existing source integration tests must continue to pass (criterion 10) +- Manual: run the PoC from each ticket against a local Vector build with the fix applied + and confirm the exploit no longer succeeds; confirm normal traffic is unaffected From c86fbcfeabb3f5d30e560b91d45958f20b92f961 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Juan Mantica Date: Fri, 7 Aug 2026 16:39:04 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 02/20] docs(plans): add OOM/unbounded allocation bounds implementation plan Covers 10 tickets (OBE-10709, -10712, -10718, -11232, -11234, -11235, -11236, -11238, -11555, -11556) across 4 fix families: decompression output caps, newline framer max_length, GELF chunk-reassembly bounds, and STCP buffer/header/clone/permit fixes.

In `build_channel_data` (lines 1043-1056): after reading `n` from `read_leb128_i32`, reject + if `n > 256` (matching the indexing use at line 474) and return + `STcpDecoderError::InvalidDataEncoding`. This prevents the 2-billion-iteration hot loop from + a 5-byte wire payload. + +2.

With many concurrent senders opening message IDs without completing them, this could grow the task pool unboundedly (O(N) tasks for N in-flight message IDs). Replace with a single background reaper task per ChunkedGelfDecoder that owns a tokio_util::time::DelayQueue. The decode path sends the message_id to the reaper via an UnboundedSender; the reaper inserts it into the DelayQueue with the configured timeout. When a timeout fires the reaper removes the entry from the shared state HashMap and logs the existing warning. Task count is now O(1) regardless of concurrent senders. JoinHandle is removed from MessageState (no per-message abort needed; completed messages are removed from state before the timer fires, so the reaper's remove is a no-op).

An unbounded channel is safe here because the queue itself is bounded by `pending_messages_limit` — at most 1 000 entries will ever be queued. +**Alternatives considered**: `Arc>` — rejected because `DelayQueue::next()` requires pinning and mut access, making shared access awkward; the channel pattern is idiomatic tokio. + +--- + +## D3 — [2026-08-07] — Task 8: LEB128 EOF returns InSufficientData, not Ok(partial) + +**Status**: Accepted +**Decision**: When `read_leb128_i64` exhausts the buffer mid-read, it now returns `Err(STcpDecoderError::InSufficientData)` instead of `Ok(result_so_far)` (which was effectively `Ok(0)` on first byte exhaustion). +**Reason**: The old behavior was a silent truncation: a continuation byte at end-of-buffer would cause the caller to proceed with a zero count, bypassing loop guards (e.g. `n > max_channel_headers`). Returning `InSufficientData` signals `FramedRead` to buffer more bytes and retry from the frame start — the standard "need more data" contract for streaming decoders. The `InSufficientData` path was already special-cased in `decode()` to return `Ok(None)`, so existing behavior for genuine partial frames is preserved. +**Alternatives considered**: Returning `Ok(0)` (the previous behavior) — rejected because it silently breaks loop-count guards and enables the attack described in OBE-11234. + +--- + +## D4 — [2026-08-07] — Task 9: max_lines_per_event cap only; Arc-sharing deferred + +**Status**: Accepted +**Decision**: Task 9 implemented `max_lines_per_event = 10 000` truncation only. The Arc-sharing optimization (wrapping `fields`, `control_fields`, `breaker_fields` in `Arc<...>` to avoid per-line deep clones) was not implemented. +**Reason**: The cap is the primary security control — it bounds the total number of `S2SEventFrame` clones to 10 000, eliminating the unbounded O(N×M) allocation. The Arc-sharing would reduce per-clone cost by sharing read-only HashMaps, but with the cap in place, the worst case is 10 000 × `sizeof(S2SEventFrame)` — bounded, not exponential. The Arc-sharing requires changing 11+ write sites across the struct's lifetime (`fields.insert`, `control_fields.get_mut`, etc.) to use `Arc::make_mut`, which is a larger refactor and carries more risk than the security value at this point. +**Alternatives considered**: Full Arc-sharing — deferred; suitable as a follow-up optimization ticket once the security bound is confirmed in production. + +--- + +## D5 — [2026-08-07] — Task 2: Bomb detection uses >= not > + +**Status**: Accepted +**Decision**: In `decode_compressed_frame` (Logstash), the bomb check is `buf.len() as u64 >= max_decompressed_bytes` (not `>`). +**Reason**: After `.take(max_decompressed_bytes)`, if the decompressor fills the buffer to exactly `max_decompressed_bytes`, the output was truncated — the actual payload could be larger. Using `>=` catches both the "exactly at limit" (truncated) and "over limit" cases. Using `>` would accept exactly-at-limit output as a complete decompression, which is wrong if the real payload is `max_decompressed_bytes + 1`. +**Alternatives considered**: `>` — rejected because it accepts a potentially-truncated decompression silently. + +--- + +## D6 — [2026-08-07] — Task 3: SLDC max_out = max_content_length × 100 + +**Status**: Accepted +**Decision**: The SLDC decompressor output cap is `max_content_length as usize * 100`, not a separate config field. +**Reason**: SLDC is a lossless compressor used for WEF XML payloads. Real compression ratios for XML are typically 5–15×. A 100× cap is generous enough to never trigger on legitimate data while still bounding the worst-case output at 512 KB × 100 = 51.2 MB (with the default 512 KB `max_content_length`). A separate `max_decompressed_bytes` field was considered but adds surface without significant benefit given the 100× ratio is already conservative. +**Alternatives considered**: Separate `max_sldc_decompressed_bytes` config field — deferred; can be added if operators need finer control. + +--- + +## D7 — [2026-08-07] — Task 10: TCP permit drop uses Option::take, not explicit drop + +**Status**: Accepted +**Decision**: `permit.take()` is called to release the permit before `write_all`, where `permit: Option`. The original `drop(permit)` at the end of the loop body is preserved as a no-op fallback for non-ack paths. +**Reason**: The permit is held in an `Option` due to the existing code structure. `take()` sets it to `None` and drops the value, cleanly expressing "I am done with this permit now." The existing `drop(permit)` at the end of the loop still compiles and handles error paths where `take()` was not called. +**Alternatives considered**: Moving the permit into a local and adding an explicit `drop(permit_local)` — equivalent but more verbose. The `take()` approach is idiomatic for `Option`-wrapped guards. diff --git a/docs/plans/2026-08-07-oom-bounds-plan.md b/docs/plans/2026-08-07-oom-bounds-plan.md deleted file mode 100644 index 92bd1dda95..0000000000 --- a/docs/plans/2026-08-07-oom-bounds-plan.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,358 +0,0 @@ -# OOM / Unbounded Allocation Bounds — Implementation Plan - -Spec: docs/specs/2026-08-07-security-oom-allocation-bounds.md -Workspace: worktree: ~/vector-oom-bounds, branch: security-oom-bounds -Jira: OBE-10709, OBE-10712, OBE-10718, OBE-11232, OBE-11234, OBE-11235, OBE-11236, OBE-11238, OBE-11555, OBE-11556 - -## Progress - -- [x] Task 1: GCS decompression cap + framing max_length (OBE-10709) — `c5e9304` (private submodule, `2b175f603` parent) -- [x] Task 2: Logstash decompression + nested-C recursion guard (OBE-10712) — `b034a7fd7` + `637e03e5b` (tests) -- [x] Task 3: WEF body limit + SLDC decompress cap (OBE-10718, OBE-11236) — `c78583d` (private submodule, `2b175f603` parent) -- [x] Task 4: Newline framer max_length default + socket/statsd exposure (OBE-11232) — `15c3bc3ad` -- [x] Task 5: GELF finite defaults — pending_messages_limit and max_length (OBE-11235 part 1) — `0153d5aa6` -- [x] Task 6: GELF DelayQueue reaper — O(N) task → O(1) (OBE-11235 part 2) — `bd3735b63` -- [x] Task 7: STCP frame buffer cap — max_frame_bytes in decode() (OBE-11238) — `a05d0ca` (private submodule, `2b175f603` parent) -- [x] Task 8: STCP RegisterChannel header-count cap + LEB128 error propagation (OBE-11234) — `4ec05c8` (private submodule, `17debea15` parent) -- [x] Task 9: STCP parse_lines clone → Arc shared metadata + max_lines cap (OBE-11556) — `18fac46` (private submodule, `17debea15` parent) -- [x] Task 10: TCP ack permit release before write_all (OBE-11555) — `e99054335` - -## Tasks - ---- - -### Task 1: GCS decompression cap + framing max_length (OBE-10709) - -**What**: Two fixes in the GCS source: - -1.

The channel design is simpler: the decode path only ever sends a `u64`, the reaper task exclusively owns the `DelayQueue`. An unbounded channel is safe here because the queue itself is bounded by `pending_messages_limit` — at most 1 000 entries will ever be queued. -**Alternatives considered**: `Arc>` — rejected because `DelayQueue::next()` requires pinning and mut access, making shared access awkward; the channel pattern is idiomatic tokio. - ---- - -## D3 — [2026-08-07] — Task 8: LEB128 EOF returns InSufficientData, not Ok(partial) - -**Status**: Accepted -**Decision**: When `read_leb128_i64` exhausts the buffer mid-read, it now returns `Err(STcpDecoderError::InSufficientData)` instead of `Ok(result_so_far)` (which was effectively `Ok(0)` on first byte exhaustion). -**Reason**: The old behavior was a silent truncation: a continuation byte at end-of-buffer would cause the caller to proceed with a zero count, bypassing loop guards (e.g. `n > max_channel_headers`). Returning `InSufficientData` signals `FramedRead` to buffer more bytes and retry from the frame start — the standard "need more data" contract for streaming decoders. The `InSufficientData` path was already special-cased in `decode()` to return `Ok(None)`, so existing behavior for genuine partial frames is preserved. -**Alternatives considered**: Returning `Ok(0)` (the previous behavior) — rejected because it silently breaks loop-count guards and enables the attack described in OBE-11234. - ---- - -## D4 — [2026-08-07] — Task 9: max_lines_per_event cap only; Arc-sharing deferred - -**Status**: Accepted -**Decision**: Task 9 implemented `max_lines_per_event = 10 000` truncation only. The Arc-sharing optimization (wrapping `fields`, `control_fields`, `breaker_fields` in `Arc<...>` to avoid per-line deep clones) was not implemented. -**Reason**: The cap is the primary security control — it bounds the total number of `S2SEventFrame` clones to 10 000, eliminating the unbounded O(N×M) allocation. The Arc-sharing would reduce per-clone cost by sharing read-only HashMaps, but with the cap in place, the worst case is 10 000 × `sizeof(S2SEventFrame)` — bounded, not exponential. The Arc-sharing requires changing 11+ write sites across the struct's lifetime (`fields.insert`, `control_fields.get_mut`, etc.) to use `Arc::make_mut`, which is a larger refactor and carries more risk than the security value at this point. -**Alternatives considered**: Full Arc-sharing — deferred; suitable as a follow-up optimization ticket once the security bound is confirmed in production. - ---- - -## D5 — [2026-08-07] — Task 2: Bomb detection uses >= not > - -**Status**: Accepted -**Decision**: In `decode_compressed_frame` (Logstash), the bomb check is `buf.len() as u64 >= max_decompressed_bytes` (not `>`). -**Reason**: After `.take(max_decompressed_bytes)`, if the decompressor fills the buffer to exactly `max_decompressed_bytes`, the output was truncated — the actual payload could be larger. Using `>=` catches both the "exactly at limit" (truncated) and "over limit" cases. Using `>` would accept exactly-at-limit output as a complete decompression, which is wrong if the real payload is `max_decompressed_bytes + 1`. -**Alternatives considered**: `>` — rejected because it accepts a potentially-truncated decompression silently. - ---- - -## D6 — [2026-08-07] — Task 3: SLDC max_out = max_content_length × 100 - -**Status**: Accepted -**Decision**: The SLDC decompressor output cap is `max_content_length as usize * 100`, not a separate config field. -**Reason**: SLDC is a lossless compressor used for WEF XML payloads. Real compression ratios for XML are typically 5–15×. A 100× cap is generous enough to never trigger on legitimate data while still bounding the worst-case output at 512 KB × 100 = 51.2 MB (with the default 512 KB `max_content_length`). A separate `max_decompressed_bytes` field was considered but adds surface without significant benefit given the 100× ratio is already conservative. -**Alternatives considered**: Separate `max_sldc_decompressed_bytes` config field — deferred; can be added if operators need finer control. - ---- - -## D7 — [2026-08-07] — Task 10: TCP permit drop uses Option::take, not explicit drop - -**Status**: Accepted -**Decision**: `permit.take()` is called to release the permit before `write_all`, where `permit: Option`. The original `drop(permit)` at the end of the loop body is preserved as a no-op fallback for non-ack paths. -**Reason**: The permit is held in an `Option` due to the existing code structure. `take()` sets it to `None` and drops the value, cleanly expressing "I am done with this permit now." The existing `drop(permit)` at the end of the loop still compiles and handles error paths where `take()` was not called. -**Alternatives considered**: Moving the permit into a local and adding an explicit `drop(permit_local)` — equivalent but more verbose. The `take()` approach is idiomatic for `Option`-wrapped guards. From 294d6c32a717e33da74d66cdc2f0b239b2d031ae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Juan Mantica Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2026 14:08:19 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 17/20] fix(security): [OBE-11232,OBE-10712,OBE-11235,OBE-11555] address review on OOM bounds MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Applies the PR #138 review feedback. The security intent of each bound is unchanged; what changes is where the bound is applied and how loudly it reports when it bites. Newline framing (OBE-11232) Bounding `NewlineDelimitedDecoder::new()` silently overrode every caller that had deliberately chosen no limit — including `aws_s3::default_framing`, which spells out `max_length: None` under a backwards-compatibility comment. At 100 KiB that dropped ordinary large JSON records (CloudTrail, EDR telemetry) with only a rate-limited warning. Restore `new()` to unbounded and move the default to `NewlineDelimitedDecoderConfig::build()` at 1 MiB, matching what the GCS source had already chosen independently. Callers that construct the decoder directly keep control of their own limit; the statsd call sites now opt in explicitly, since they were the intended targets of the original ticket. GELF reaper (OBE-11235) The DelayQueue timer was never cancelled when a message completed, so a sender that reused a message id inside the timeout window had its new message evicted by the previous message's timer. Track each pending id's DelayQueue key so completion (and the max-length drop path) can cancel it. Three new tests fail against the previous behaviour. Logstash (OBE-10712) Lower `max_decompressed_bytes` from 256 MiB to 32 MiB: the bound is per frame, so at 256 MiB a few concurrent connections could still exhaust heap. Fix an off-by-one — reading up to `max` made "exactly at the limit" (legal) indistinguishable from "truncated at the limit", so a payload of exactly `max_decompressed_bytes` was rejected. Read `max + 1` and compare with `>`. The two decompression-bomb tests were behind the `logstash-integration-tests` feature and never ran in normal CI. Move them into the unit test module and add boundary, buffer-drain, and stream-continuation coverage. TCP ack write (OBE-11555) Replace the empty `test_permit_released_before_ack_write` stub — which asserted nothing and always passed — with real coverage. Extract the ack write into `write_ack`, testable over `tokio::io::duplex`, and cover the success, timeout, slow-but-progressing, and hangup paths plus the permit ordering the fix depends on. Docs Add a breaking-change changelog entry, and refresh the generated Cue docs for the changed `max_length` default and the new logstash option. NOTE: the Cue files under website/cue are machine-generated. They were updated by hand because `make generate-component-docs` needs a full vector build, which does not link on macOS (librdkafka/GSSAPI). CI must re-run the generator to confirm no drift.

Also shrinks the chunked_gelf diff to the two default values; the DelayQueue reaper rewrite moves to its own PR. - Newline framing: 1 MiB -> 10 MiB. - logstash max_decompressed_bytes: 32 MiB -> 256 MiB. One Beats `C` frame carries a whole window (bulk_max_size 2048, go-lumber maxWindowSize 10000), so inflated batches legitimately reach tens of MiB. - GELF: max_length 5 -> 8 MiB and pending_messages_limit 1000 -> 10000. The protocol ceiling is 128 chunks x 65507 bytes, so 8 MiB is above anything the wire format can produce; Graylog's own decompress_size_limit is also 8 MiB and Graylog caps pending messages not at all. - chunked_gelf.rs is back to master apart from the two defaults, which also drops the tokio-util "time" feature. Changelog is no longer a breaking entry.

That matters because some S3 objects are a single newline-free JSON document — CloudTrail delivers `{"Records":[...]}`, AWS Config `{"configurationItems": [...]}` — so after gunzip the whole object is one "line" and a per-line cap drops it wholesale. Moving the default onto the field as a serde default keeps both behaviors: a user who omits the key gets 10 MiB, while a component that constructs `None` in Rust stays unbounded. 10 MiB clears every documented per-record maximum by >=10x (CloudTrail 256 KB / 1 MB Lake, CloudWatch Logs 1 MB, EventBridge 1 MB, Pub/Sub 10 MB, CRI 16 KiB, ETW 64 KB) and is already 100x upstream Vector's `file` source `max_line_bytes` of 100 KiB.

CharacterDelimitedDecoder::decode returns Ok(None) with no size check when no delimiter is present (character_delimited.rs:117), so a peer that never sends '\n' still grows the BytesMut without limit. max_length only fires once a delimiter arrives or at EOF. So the default was pure cost: silently dropping legitimate long lines (S3 CloudTrail objects are one newline-free JSON document) with no metric and no back-pressure, while leaving the actual attack open. Reverted across codecs, statsd, gcs and the generated docs. Closing that vector properly means bounding buffer growth inside CharacterDelimitedDecoder when no delimiter has been found yet, which is a separate change to shared codec behavior and belongs in its own PR. Also bumps the private submodule for the stcp frame-cap headroom and the wef body-limit and SLDC fixes.
