1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-28362)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

A remote attacker can pass large input data to the application, specifically as divisor or modulo argument larger than 3168 bits (on 32-bit architectures) or 6336 bits (on 64-bit architectures).
