Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for php-phpseclib3.

CVE-2023-27560[0]:
| Math/PrimeField.php in phpseclib through 2.0.41 has an infinite loop
| with composite primefields.

The official CVE description is right now a bit confusing for me, I'm
assuming the issue is only introduced with [2] wich is in 3.0.0. Is
this correct?

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
