CVE-2022-23002

When compressing or decompressing a point on the NIST P-256 elliptic curve with an X coordinate of zero, the resulting output is not properly reduced modulo the P-256 field prime and is invalid. The resulting output will cause an error when used in other operations. This may be leveraged by an attacker to cause an error scenario in applications which use the library, resulting in a limited denial of service for an individual user. The scope of impact cannot extend to other components.

Cuando es comprimido o descomprimido un punto en la curva elíptica P-256 de NIST con una coordenada X de cero, la salida resultando no es reducida apropiadamente modulo el primo del campo P-256 y es inválida. La salida resultante causará un error cuando sea usada en otras operaciones. Esto puede ser aprovechado por un atacante para causar un escenario de error en las aplicaciones que usan la biblioteca, resultando en una denegación de servicio limitada para un usuario individual. El alcance del impacto no puede extenderse a otros componentes
