  - ** DISPUTED ** A Buffer Overflow vulnerability exists in NumPy 1.9.x in the PyArray_NewFromDescr_int
    function of ctors.c when specifying arrays of large dimensions (over 32) from Python code, which could let
    a malicious user cause a Denial of Service. NOTE: The vendor does not agree this is a vulneraility; In
    (very limited) circumstances a user may be able provoke the buffer overflow, the user is most likely
    already privileged to at least provoke denial of service by exhausting memory. Triggering this further
    requires the use of uncommon API (complicated structured dtypes), which is very unlikely to be available
    to an unprivileged user. (CVE-2021-33430)

  - ** DISPUTED ** Buffer overflow in the array_from_pyobj function of fortranobject.c in NumPy < 1.19, which
    allows attackers to conduct a Denial of Service attacks by carefully constructing an array with negative
    values. NOTE: The vendor does not agree this is a vulnerability; the negative dimensions can only be
    created by an already privileged user (or internally). (CVE-2021-41496)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
