TL;DR

TLS 1.3 Encrypted Client Hello parsing can integer-underflow when deriving a buffer length, causing a heap write past the end of an allocated buffer when ECH is enabled. A peer can supply malformed ECH extensions that trigger the underflow. The fix corrects length calculation so ECH parsing cannot write beyond the allocated region.

Who does this affect?

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range.
