Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Race Condition in the signature state handling process. An attacker can cause the system to erroneously sign conflicting votes by sending concurrent signature requests that exploit the timing issue between read and write operations. This is only exploitable if two sign requests arrive nearly simultaneously for the same Height-Round-Step (HRS).
