    Version        : 0.4.8-1+deb11u2
    CVE ID         : CVE-2026-30922
    Debian Bug     : 1131371

    It was discovered that pyasn1, a generic ASN.1 library for Python, is vulnerable
    to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack caused by uncontrolled recursion when
    decoding ASN.1 data with deeply nested structures. This vulnerability can force
    the decoder to recursively call itself until the Python interpreter crashes with a
    `RecursionError` or consumes all available memory, crashing the host application.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
    0.4.8-1+deb11u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your pyasn1 packages.

    For the detailed security status of pyasn1 please refer to
    its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/pyasn1
