- CVE-2016-6891 (Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer): The
ASN.1 Bit Field is not properly parsed. A specially crafted certificate may lead to a denial of
service condition due to an out of bounds read in memory.
- CVE-2016-6892 (Free of Memory not on the Heap): The x509FreeExtensions() function does not
properly parse X.509 certificates. A specially crafted certificate may cause a free operation on
unallocated memory, resulting in a denial of service condition.");
