Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions due to the lack of an array size check in the _Mtxinit function within the Xtensa port, leading to a potential memory overwrite scenario. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to overwrite memory, which could result in arbitrary code execution or crash the system.
