Vulnerability from csaf_microsoft - Published: 2022-09-02 00:00 - Updated: 2023-06-13 00:00
Summary
A flaw was found in python. In algorithms with quadratic time complexity using non-binary bases when using int("text") a system could take 50ms to parse an int string with 100000 digits and 5s for 1000000 digits (float decimal int.from_bytes() and int() for binary bases 2 4 8 16 and 32 are not affected). The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
