Carry propagation bugs are something that can go wrong in a bignum implementation. Bignum is what you need when you have one number that you're splitting between multiple variables (because it's a 256-bit number, and you want your library to work on 32-bit PCs, for example). Carry propagation is if part of your result is too large for one part of your number and needs to overflow into the next part.
