  "title": "python3-rsa: Python-RSA before 4.1 ignores leading \u0027\\0\u0027 bytes during decryption of ciphertext",
  "description": "Python-RSA before 4.1 ignores leading \u0027\\0\u0027 bytes during decryption of ciphertext. This could conceivably have a security-relevant impact, e.g., by helping an attacker to infer that an application uses Python-RSA, or if the length of accepted ciphertext affects application behavior (such as by causing excessive memory allocation).",
