| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in electrum. A connected malicious server can exploit this vulnerability to cause theft of funds by replacing a legitimate transaction with a fraudulent transfer. Because the application fails to verify cryptographic signatures on unconfirmed transactions, the attacker can display a spoofed transaction paying an attacker-controlled address. This issue allows the server to deceive the user into signing a fee adjustment, resulting in the unauthorized transfer of funds.
