GHSA-x4jg-mjrx-434g
Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature in node-forge
Quick fix
GHSA-x4jg-mjrx-434g — node-forge: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.
npm install node-forge@1.3.0Details
### Impact
RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 signature verification code does not check for tailing garbage bytes after decoding a `DigestInfo` ASN.1 structure. This can allow padding bytes to be removed and garbage data added to forge a signature when a low public exponent is being used.
### Patches
The issue has been addressed in `node-forge` `1.3.0`.
