NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream jenkins-2 package and not the jenkins-2 package as distributed by Wolfi. See How to fix? for Wolfi relevant fixed versions and status.

The implementation of EdDSA in EdDSA-Java (aka ed25519-java) through 0.3.0 exhibits signature malleability and does not satisfy the SUF-CMA (Strong Existential Unforgeability under Chosen Message Attacks) property. This allows attackers to create new valid signatures different from previous signatures for a known message.
