> As evidenced by the recent SHA3 buffer overflow, cryptographic primitives are tricky to implement correctly. There might be issues with memory management, exceeding lengths, incorrect buffer management, or worse, incorrect implementations in corner cases.
This is a proactive fix for zero days that may be lurking in the wild.
