Summary
Updated botan2 packages fix security vulnerability
Details

An attacker could present an ECDSA X.509 certificate using explicit encoding where the parameters are very large. When parsing, the parameter is checked to be prime, causing excessive computation. This was patched in 2.19.4 and 3.3.0 to allow the prime parameter of the elliptic curve to be at most 521 bits. No known workarounds are available. Note that support for explicit encoding of elliptic curve parameters is deprecated in Botan.
