Description Guilherme de Almeida Suckevicz 2026-07-30 14:31:55 UTC 
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

The Verify() method for FIDO/U2F security key types (sk-ecdsa-sha2-nistp256, sk-ssh-ed25519) did not check the User Presence flag. Signatures generated without physical touch were accepted, allowing unattended use of a hardware security key. To restore the previous behavior, return a "no-touch-required" extension in Permissions.Extensions from PublicKeyCallback.
Comment 1 Aoife Moloney 2026-08-17 15:43:18 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 45 development cycle.
Changing version to 45.
Comment 2 David Trudgian 2026-08-19 15:01:28 UTC 
Affected functionality not used in singularity-ce.
