Severity: info · Published 2020-01-02
A flaw was found in all python-ecdsa versions before 0.13.3, where it did not correctly verify whether signatures used DER encoding. Without this verification, a malformed signature could be accepted, making the signature malleable. Without proper verification, an attacker could use a malleable signature to create false transactions.
No. Junglewise Threat Intelligence has no report of This vulnerability being exploited in the wild.
