Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Write via the CRL number parsing process. An attacker can cause memory corruption or execute arbitrary code by providing a specially crafted CRL with a maliciously sized CRL number. This is only exploitable if CRL support is enabled and a CRL is loaded from an untrusted source.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by disabling CRL processing.
