CVE-2023-23940

5.3 mediumEPSS 0.2%

Medium (5.3) in openzeppelin contracts. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in openzeppelin-cairo-contracts 0.6.1.

OpenZeppelin Contracts for Cairo is a library for secure smart contract development written in Cairo for StarkNet, a decentralized ZK Rollup. `is_valid_eth_signature` is missing a call to `finalize_keccak` after calling `verify_eth_signature`. As a result, any contract using `is_valid_eth_signature` from the account library (such as the `EthAccount` preset) is vulnerable to a malicious sequencer. Specifically, the malicious sequencer would be able to bypass signature validation to impersonate an instance of these accounts. The issue has been patched in 0.6.1.
