Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
Due to improper bounds checking, a number of methods in dhowden tag before 0.0.0-20201120070457-d52dcb253c63 can trigger a panic due to attempted out-of-bounds reads. If the package is used to parse user supplied input, this may be used as a vector for a denial of service attack.
