CVE-2020-13895

8.8 highEPSS 0.7%

High (8.8) in p5-crypt-perl project p5-crypt-perl. EPSS 0.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Crypt::Perl::ECDSA in the Crypt::Perl (aka p5-Crypt-Perl) module before 0.32 for Perl fails to verify correct ECDSA signatures when r and s are small and when s = 1. This happens when using the curve secp256r1 (prime256v1). This could conceivably have a security-relevant impact if an attacker wishes to use public r and s values when guessing whether signature verification will fail.
