{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-59884","details":"pyasn1 is a generic ASN.1 library for Python. Prior to 0.6.4, the BER decoder shared by the CER and DER codecs parses long-form tags by accumulating continuation octets without an upper bound on the tag ID size, allowing a crafted input to force construction of an arbitrarily large integer with CPU cost growing quadratically and to trigger unhandled ValueError exceptions in Python 3.11+ error formatting paths. Any application decoding untrusted BER, CER, or DER input is affected. This issue is fixed in version 0.6.4.","modified":"2026-09-12T10:00:27.093033338Z","published":"2026-07-14T17:17:14.750Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-59884"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-59884"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"pyasn1","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/pyasn1?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.4.8-3+deb12u3"}]}],"versions":["0.4.8-3","0.4.8-3+deb12u1","0.4.8-3+deb12u2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-59884.json"}},{"package":{"name":"pyasn1","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/pyasn1?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.6.1-1+deb13u3"}]}],"versions":["0.6.1-1","0.6.1-1+deb13u1","0.6.1-1+deb13u2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-59884.json"}},{"package":{"name":"pyasn1","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/pyasn1?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.6.4-1"}]}],"versions":["0.6.1-1","0.6.2-1","0.6.2-1~bpo13+1","0.6.3-1","0.6.4-1~bpo13+1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-59884.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
