(libtasn1, GNU TLS: Security flaw in DER decoding)
Evgeny Legerov has reported a flaw in the DER decoding routines
provided by libtasn1, which could cause an out of bounds access to
occur.
Impact :
A remote attacker could cause an application using libtasn1 to
crash and potentially execute arbitrary code by sending specially
crafted input.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time."
