Doc Text:
A flaw was found in jsrsasign. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing specially crafted zero or negative inputs to the bnModInverse function within the BigInteger.modInverse implementation. This could lead to an infinite loop, causing a permanent denial of service (DoS) by hanging the process.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-03-23 06:02:11 UTC
Versions of the package jsrsasign before 11.1.1 are vulnerable to Infinite loop via the bnModInverse function in ext/jsbn2.js when the BigInteger.modInverse implementation receives zero or negative inputs, allowing an attacker to hang the process permanently by supplying such crafted values (e.g., modInverse(0, m) or modInverse(-1, m)).
