Summary

CVE-2024-27354

An attacker can construct a malformed certificate containing an
extremely large prime to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption
for an `isPrime` primality check).

This issue was introduced when attempting to fix CVE-2023-27560.

CVE-2024-27355

When processing the ASN.1 object identifier of a certificate, a sub
identifier may be provided that leads to a denial of service (CPU
consumption for `decodeOID`).

We recommend that you upgrade your php-phpseclib packages.
