Buffer Overflow
CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

ber-decoder.c in Libksba before 1.3.3 uses an incorrect integer data type, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via crafted BER data, which leads to a buffer overflow.

Integer Underflow, Buffer Overflow
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Integer underflow in the ksbaoidtostr function in Libksba before 1.3.2, as used in GnuPG, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted OID in a (1) S/MIME message or (2) ECC based OpenPGP data, which triggers a buffer overflow.
