This security bulletin contains information about 2 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Type conversion (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-10735)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion in algorithms with quadratic time complexity when using non-binary bases within the int() call. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the affected application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-37454)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the Keccak XKCP SHA-3 reference implementation. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system or eliminate expected cryptographic properties.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
