Hi,
The following vulnerability was published for mbedtls.
CVE-2025-49601[0]:
| In MbedTLS 3.3.0 before 3.6.4, mbedtls_lms_import_public_key does
| not check that the input buffer is at least 4 bytes before reading a
| 32-bit field, allowing a possible out-of-bounds read on truncated
| input. Specifically, an out-of-bounds read in
| mbedtls_lms_import_public_key allows context-dependent attackers to
| trigger a crash or limited adjacent-memory disclosure by supplying a
| truncated LMS (Leighton-Micali Signature) public-key buffer under
| four bytes. An LMS public key starts with a 4-byte type indicator.
| The function mbedtls_lms_import_public_key reads this type indicator
| before validating the size of its input.
If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
