Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Write in the non-default BIO_f_linebuffer filter. An attacker who can cause writes of large, newline-free data to an application using this filter with a BIO chain that can short-write, may cause a crash. This data is unlikely to originate from untrusted sources in a TLS connection.
