This leads to valid signatures being rejected. Legitimate transactions or communications may be incorrectly flagged as invalid.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L","score":4.8},"cwes":["CWE-347"],"references":["https://blog.trailofbits.com/2025/11/18/we-found-cryptography-bugs-in-the-elliptic-library-using-wycheproof/","https://github.com/indutny/elliptic/issues/321","https://github.com/indutny/elliptic/pull/322","https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20241220-0004/"],"products":["indutny:elliptic"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:55:31.737901711+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2024-48948","score":0.00553,"percentile":0.46191,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-fc9h-whq2-v747","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-fc9h-whq2-v747","summary":"Valid ECDSA signatures erroneously rejected in Elliptic","modified":"2025-11-27T08:58:35.614129Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"elliptic","purl":"pkg:npm/elliptic","ranges":["<6.6.0"],"fixed":["6.6.0"]}]}],"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).
