Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling through the AEADEncDataPacket parser in AEADEncDataPacket.java. An attacker can crash packet parsing by supplying an AEAD-encrypted OpenPGP packet with an out-of-range chunk size value. The malformed chunk size is accepted by the packet reader and later used to derive chunk lengths and nonces, causing the decryptor or parser to fail while processing attacker-controlled ciphertext.
