Description
Vyper is a pythonic Smart Contract Language for the ethereum virtual machine.

This results in the decoding of values outside the intended array bounds, potentially leading to exploitations in contracts that use arrays within _abi_decode. This vulnerability affects 0.3.10 and earlier versions.
