Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

GHSA-6976-qm5m-7mcj: viperjs versions before 0.2.2 (up to and including 0.2.1) can panic on a BigInt division whose divisor magnitude lands exactly on the engine's internal limb ceiling, and two other BigInt operations return wrong results without any error. An attacker who can supply script run by an embedding application can trigger a denial of service in the host process or get incorrect values. Upgrade to viperjs 0.2.2, which fixes all three behaviours; no workaround is listed.
