As invalid UTF-8 strings are not correctly checked, an attacker could
cause a denial of service to other clients by disconnecting
them from the broker with special crafted topics.

Due to a memory leak unauthenticated clients can send special crafted
CONNECT packets which could cause a denial of service in the broker.
