Descriptions

The BN_bn2dec function in crypto/bn/bn_print.c in OpenSSL before 1.1.0 does not properly validate division results, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors.

La función BN_bn2dec en crypto/bn/bn_print.c en OpenSSL en versiones anteriores a 1.1.0 no valida adecuadamente resultados de la división, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (escritura fuera de límites y caída de la aplicación) o tener otro posible impacto no especificado a través de vectores desconocidos.

An out of bounds write flaw was discovered in the OpenSSL BN_bn2dec() function. An attacker able to make an application using OpenSSL to process a large BIGNUM could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code.
