Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read via the processing of encoded presentation data in the ISO Presentation layer. An attacker can cause the process to terminate by sending a crafted TCP/102 connection attempt with a controlled field set to a zero length value, resulting in a bounded heap over-read.
