{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2022-24773","details":"Forge (also called `node-forge`) is a native implementation of Transport Layer Security in JavaScript. 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.","modified":"2025-10-24T04:53:30Z","published":"2022-03-18T14:15:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2022-24773"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2022-24773"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/security/advisories/GHSA-2r2c-g63r-vccr"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/commit/3f0b49a0573ef1bb7af7f5673c0cfebf00424df1"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/commit/bb822c02df0b61211836472e29b9790cc541cdb2"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2022-24773"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"node-node-forge","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/node-node-forge@0.9.1~dfsg-1?arch=source&distro=focal"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.8.5~dfsg-2","0.9.1~dfsg-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libjs-node-forge","binary_version":"0.9.1~dfsg-1"},{"binary_name":"node-node-forge","binary_version":"0.9.1~dfsg-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2022/UBUNTU-CVE-2022-24773.json"}},{"package":{"name":"node-node-forge","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/node-node-forge@1.2.1~dfsg-2?arch=source&distro=jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.10.0~dfsg-3","1.2.1~dfsg-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libjs-node-forge","binary_version":"1.2.1~dfsg-2"},{"binary_name":"node-node-forge","binary_version":"1.2.1~dfsg-2"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2022/UBUNTU-CVE-2022-24773.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.3","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N"},{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
