Prior to version 1.3.0, RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 signature verification code does not properly check `DigestInfo` for a proper ASN.1 structure. This can lead to successful verification with signatures that contain invalid structures but a valid digest. The issue has been addressed in `node-forge` version 1.3.0. There are currently no known workarounds.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","score":5.3},"cwes":["CWE-347"],"references":["https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/commit/3f0b49a0573ef1bb7af7f5673c0cfebf00424df1","https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/commit/bb822c02df0b61211836472e29b9790cc541cdb2","https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/security/advisories/GHSA-2r2c-g63r-vccr","https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/commit/3f0b49a0573ef1bb7af7f5673c0cfebf00424df1","https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/commit/bb822c02df0b61211836472e29b9790cc541cdb2"],"products":["digitalbazaar:forge"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:29:06.454770966+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2022-24773","score":0.00956,"percentile":0.61427,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-2r2c-g63r-vccr","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-2r2c-g63r-vccr","summary":"Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature in `node-forge`","modified":"2023-11-08T04:08:35.918577Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"node-forge","purl":"pkg:npm/node-forge","ranges":["<1.3.0"],"fixed":["1.3.0"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
