An incomplete string comparison in the numpy.core component in NumPy before 1.22.0 allows attackers to trigger slightly incorrect copying by constructing specific string objects. NOTE: the vendor states that this reported code behavior is completely harmless.
Weakness
The product compares two entities in a security-relevant context, but the comparison is incorrect.
