CVE NOT AVAILABLE CWE-311  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

There is no fixed version for ecdsa.

Overview

ecdsa is an easy-to-use implementation of ECDSA cryptography (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm), implemented purely in Python, released under the MIT license.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Encryption of Sensitive Data due to insufficient protection. For a sophisticated attacker observing just one operation with a private key will be sufficient to completely reconstruct the private key.

Note: Fixes for side-channel vulnerabilities will not be developed.
