The Debian security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Debian:11.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bitcoin package and not the bitcoin package as distributed by Debian.
The alert functionality in bitcoind and Bitcoin-Qt before 0.7.0 supports different character representations of the same signature data, but relies on a hash of this signature, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via a valid modified signature for a circulating alert.
