    CVE-2020-25659:
    python-cryptography 3.2 is vulnerable to Bleichenbacher timing attacks in the RSA decryption API, via
    timed processing of valid PKCS#1 v1.5 ciphertext.

    CVE-2020-36242:
    In the cryptography package before 3.3.2 for Python, certain sequences of update calls to symmetrically
    encrypt multi-GB values could result in an integer overflow and buffer overflow, as demonstrated by the
    Fernet class.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Alibaba Cloud Linux security advisory.
