Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Calculation due to the failure to clear the most significant bit during the final modular reduction in the X25519 x86_64 assembly implementation. An attacker can cause the computation of a non-canonical field element, resulting in incorrect scalar multiplication outputs and potentially an incorrect shared secret by exploiting the improper reduction process.
