Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Cryptographic Step in the ec_GFp_pt_add_jm_aff() function used for elliptic curve addition using mixed Jacobian-affine coordinates. An attacker in a MitM position can cause the function to incorrectly yield a POINT_AT_INFINITY , resulting in the application computing an incorrect shared secret during cryptographic computations.
