NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream golang-github-russellhaering-goxmldsig package and not the golang-github-russellhaering-goxmldsig package as distributed by Debian.

In goxmldsig (XML Digital Signatures implemented in pure Go) before version 1.1.0, with a carefully crafted XML file, an attacker can completely bypass signature validation and pass off an altered file as a signed one. A patch is available, all users of goxmldsig should upgrade to at least revision f6188febf0c29d7ffe26a0436212b19cb9615e64 or version 1.1.0
