Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature Affecting org.webjars.bower:jsrsasign package, versions [0,]

org.webjars.bower:jsrsasign is a free pure JavaScript cryptographic library.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature when JWS or JWT signature with non Base64URL encoding special characters or number escaped characters may be validated as valid by mistake.

Validate JWS or JWT signature if it has Base64URL and dot safe string before executing JWS.verify() or JWS.verifyJWT() method.

var rsu = require('jsrsasign-util');
