           Summary: [WebSocket]Browser should have platform-specific
                    limitations regarding the frame size
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.

>From RFC 6455
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6455#section-10.4

Browser should have platform-specific limitations regarding the frame size.
It MUST protect themselves against exceeding those limits.
For example, a malicious endpoint can try to exhaust its peer's memory or
mount a denial-of-service attack by sending a single big frame (e.g., of size 2**60)
