Path to vulnerable library: /home/wss-scanner/.m2/repository/org/bouncycastle/bcprov-jdk15on/1.56/bcprov-jdk15on-1.56.jar,/home/wss-scanner/.m2/repository/org/bouncycastle/bcprov-jdk15on/1.56/bcprov-jdk15on-1.56.jar
An issue was discovered in ECCurve.java and ECCurve.cs in Bouncy Castle Java (BC Java) before 1.78, BC Java LTS before 2.73.6, BC-FJA before 1.0.2.5, and BC C# .Net before 2.3.1. Importing an EC certificate with crafted F2m parameters can lead to excessive CPU consumption during the evaluation of the curve parameters.
