HighCVSS: 8.7

Last Updated: March 23, 2026

jsrsasign - Weak Cryptography

Published: March 23, 2026Updated: March 23, 2026Remote Exploitable

Overview

jsrsasign < 11.1.1 contains a missing cryptographic step caused by improper handling of zero values in DSA signing implementation, letting attackers recover private keys by forcing r or s to zero, exploit requires crafted signature inputs.
