Inappropriate coding practices In stdlib
Description
Incorrect computation for some invalid field elements in crypto/elliptic Some big.Int values that are not valid field elements (negative or overflowing) might cause Curve.IsOnCurve to incorrectly return true. Operating on those values may cause a panic or an invalid curve operation. Note that Unmarshal will never return such values.
Mitigation
Update Impact
Minimal update. May introduce new vulnerabilities or breaking changes.
