Descriptions

In the __multadd function of the newlib libc library, prior to versions 3.3.0 (see newlib/libc/stdlib/mprec.c), Balloc is used to allocate a big integer, however no check is performed to verify if the allocation succeeded or not. This will trigger a null pointer dereference bug in case of a memory allocation failure.

En la función __multadd de la biblioteca newlib libc, versiones anteriores a 3.3.0 (ver el archivo newlib/libc/stdlib/mprec.c), Balloc es utilizado para asignar un entero grande, sin embargo, ninguna comprobación es realizada para verificar si la asignación tuvo éxito o no. no. Esto activará un bug de desreferencia del puntero null en caso de un fallo de asignación de la memoria.
