Description Pedro Sampaio 2022-03-23 20:30:42 UTC
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 is lenient in checking the digest algorithm structure. This can allow a crafted structure that steals padding bytes and uses unchecked portion of the PKCS#1 encoded message to forge a signature when a low public exponent is being used. The issue has been addressed in `node-forge` version 1.3.0. There are currently no known workarounds.

Comment 5 Ben Beasley 2022-03-28 13:56:41 UTC
Since grpc only references the affected package in a package-lock.json file for a sample project in the documentation, I have closed the grpc bugs as NOTABUG. (See also bug 2061818.) I’m removing the package-lock.json file from the sample project, which will hopefully keep bugs from being filed for CVEs in its recursive dependency tree in the future.
