CVE-2019-14859 (GCVE-0-2019-14859)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2020-01-02 14:15 – Updated: 2024-08-05 00:26
VLAI?
Summary
A flaw was found in all python-ecdsa versions before 0.13.3, where it did not correctly verify whether signatures used DER encoding. Without this verification, a malformed signature could be accepted, making the signature malleable. Without proper verification, an attacker could use a malleable signature to create false transactions.
Severity ?
