Additionally, data poisoning can harm the user’s applications in many other ways, including spreading misinformation, introducing biases, degradation of performance, and potential for denial-of-service attacks.

Synopsys has emphasized that the only available remediation to this issue is isolating the potentially affected applications from integrated networks. Synopsys Cybersecurity Research Center (CyRC) said in the blog that it “recommends removing the applications from networks immediately.”
“The CyRC reached out to the developers but has not received a response within the 90-day timeline dictated by our responsible disclosure policy,” the blog added.
