+ <p>A bug in ASN.1 BER decoding has been fixed. When
+ decoding a recursively enclosed term the length was not
+ propagated to that term decoding, so if the length of the
+ enclosed term was longer than the enclosing that error
+ was not dectected</p> <p>A hard coded C stack limitation
+ for decoding recursive ASN.1 terms has been introduced.
+ This is currently set to 8 kWords giving a nesting depth
+ of about 1000 levels. Deeper terms can not be decoded,
+ which should not be much of a real world limitation.</p>
