A 75-byte PFX file with a negative MacData iteration count kept Pkcs12Store.Load busy for many minutes.","cvss_v4":{"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":7.1},"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":["CWE-835"],"references":["https://github.com/bcgit/bc-csharp/commit/0c7a6dfd64c4a479577e35a728a766721b79aba7","https://github.com/bcgit/bc-csharp/commit/7c0ed15f9783c9595b1a53f3900136461fd944f4","https://github.com/bcgit/bc-csharp/wiki/CVE-2026-63575"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:57:46.668721662+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-63575","score":0.00194,"percentile":0.08965,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
