jsrsasign: Negative Exponent Handling Leads to Signature Verification Bypass
Quick fix
GHSA-8qwj-4jxw-m8jw — jsrsasign: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.
npm install jsrsasign@11.1.1 Details
Versions of the package jsrsasign before 11.1.1 are vulnerable to Incorrect Conversion between Numeric Types due to handling negative exponents in ext/jsbn2.js. An attacker can force the computation of incorrect modular inverses and break signature verification by calling modPow with a negative exponent.
