    Package : ecdsautils
    CVE ID : CVE-2022-24884

    It was discovered that ecdsautils, a collection of ECDSA elliptic curve cryptography CLI tools verified some cryptographic signatures incorrectly:
    A signature consisting only of zeroes was always considered valid,
    making it trivial to forge signatures.

    For the oldstable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed
    in version 0.3.2+git20151018-2+deb10u1.

    For the stable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.3.2+git20151018-2+deb11u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your ecdsautils packages.

    For the detailed security status of ecdsautils please refer to
    its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/ecdsautils
