How to fix?

There is no fixed version for org.webjars.bowergithub.kjur:jsrsasign.

Overview

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

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE). Its RSASSA-PSS (RSA-PSS) implementation does not detect signature manipulation/modification by prepending '\0' bytes to a signature (it accepts these modified signatures as valid). An attacker can abuse this behavior in an application by creating multiple valid signatures where only one signature should exist. Also, an attacker might prepend these bytes with the goal of triggering memory corruption issues.
