[jira] [Created] (PROTON-771) AMQP and SASL performatives are not validated against correct frame type

             Summary: AMQP and SASL performatives are not validated against correct frame type
                 Key: PROTON-771
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-771
             Project: Qpid Proton
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: proton-c
            Reporter: Andrew Stitcher
            Assignee: Andrew Stitcher


The protocol processing logic for proton does not currently validate that amqp and sasl performatives actually have the correct frame type. In fact the current code completely ignores the frame type.

This really only means that it will accept some invalid protocol sequences and treat them as valid ones, it doesn't allow any security exploits in itself.
