Summary
Cryptography vulnerable to buffer overflow if non-contiguous buffers were passed to APIs
Details

If a non-contiguous buffer was passed to APIs which accepted Python buffers (e.g. Hash.update()), this could lead to buffer overflows. For example:

h = Hash(SHA256())
b.update(buf[::-1])

would read past the end of the buffer on Python >3.11
