Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions bn.js versions prior to 5.2.3

Description The bn.js package is susceptible to a state corruption issue. Calling the maskn(0) function on any BN instance corrupts the internal state. This corruption causes methods like toString(), divmod(), and others to enter an infinite loop, resulting in a process hang.

Recommendations Update bn.js to version 5.2.3 or later.
