Descriptions

The Keccak XKCP SHA-3 reference implementation before fdc6fef has an integer overflow and resultant buffer overflow that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or eliminate expected cryptographic properties. This occurs in the sponge function interface.

La implementación de referencia de Keccak XKCP SHA-3 versiones anteriores a fdc6fef, presenta un desbordamiento de enteros y un desbordamiento de búfer resultante que permite a atacantes ejecutar código arbitrario o eliminar las propiedades criptográficas esperadas. Esto ocurre en la interfaz de la función sponge

A flaw was found in the Keccak XKCP SHA-3 reference implementation. The sponge function interface allows partial input data to be processed, and partial output to be produced. When at least one of these has a length of 4294967096 bytes or more, it can result in elimination of cryptographic properties, execution of arbitrary code, or a denial of service.
