Descriptions

Crypto++ 5.6.4 incorrectly uses Microsoft's stack-based _malloca and _freea functions. The library will request a block of memory to align a table in memory. If the table is later reallocated, then the wrong pointer could be freed.

Crypto ++ 5.6.4 utiliza incorrectamente las funciones basadas en pila _malloca y _freea de Microsoft. La biblioteca solicitará un bloqueo de memoria para alinear una tabla en la memoria. Si la tabla se reasigna más tarde, entonces se podría liberar el puntero incorrecto.
