Summary
olm vulnerability
Details

Denis Kasak discovered that Olm was not verifying the length of input being processed by the olmpkdecrypt module, which introduced a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability to the library. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
