We add a check to make sure we are making progress during flush and exit if not. This issue was reported by Octavio Galland who also demonstrated an infinite loop in CMS encryption as a result of this bug. The security team has assessed this issue as not a CVE. This occurs on *encryption* only which is typically processing trusted data. We are not aware of a way to trigger this with untrusted data.
