| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in the go-libp2p package. A malicious peer can use large RSA keys to run a resource exhaustion attack and force a node to spend time doing signature verification of the large key. This issue is present in the core/crypto module of go-libp2p and can occur during the Noise handshake and the libp2p x509 extension verification step. To prevent this attack, go-libp2p now restricts RSA keys to <= 8192 bits.
