- Fixes a potential authorization bypass vulnerability in the gmp plugin that
|
||||||
|
was caused by a too lenient verification of PKCS#1 v1.5 signatures. Several
|
||||||
|
flaws could be exploited by a Bleichenbacher-style attack to forge signatures
|
||||||
|
for low-exponent keys (i.e. with e=3). CVE-2018-16151 has been assigned to
|
||||||
|
the problem of accepting random bytes after the OID of the hash function in
|
||||||
|
such signatures, and CVE-2018-16152 has been assigned to the issue of not
|
||||||
|
verifying that the parameters in the ASN.1 algorithmIdentitifer structure is
|
||||||
|
empty. Other flaws that don't lead to a vulnerability directly (e.g. not
|
||||||
|
checking for at least 8 bytes of padding) have no separate CVE assigned.
