| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in Bouncy Castle for Java. The software's processing of OpenPGP user-attribute subpackets does not properly limit their length, bounding them only by the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) maximum memory. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending a specially crafted OpenPGP message, leading to excessive memory consumption and a Denial of Service (DoS) condition where the application becomes unresponsive or crashes.
