NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dotnet-hostfxr-5.0 package and not the dotnet-hostfxr-5.0 package as distributed by RHEL.

Forge (also called node-forge) is a native implementation of Transport Layer Security in JavaScript. Prior to version 1.3.0, RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 signature verification code does not check for tailing garbage bytes after decoding a DigestInfo ASN.1 structure. This can allow padding bytes to be removed and garbage data added to forge a signature when a low public exponent is being used. The issue has been addressed in node-forge version 1.3.0. There are currently no known workarounds.
