  "details" : [ "A refcounting issue which leads to potential memory leak was discovered in scipy commit 8627df31ab in Py_FindObjects() function. Note: This is disputed as a bug and not a vulnerability. SciPy is not designed to be exposed to untrusted users or data directly.", "A flaw was found in SciPy, where it is vulnerable to a denial of service caused by a memory leak flaw in the Py_FindObjects() function due to a new reference not being decreased. This flaw allows a local attacker to send a specially crafted request, forcing the application to leak memory and perform a denial of service attack." ],
