What is CVE-2026-4600?
CVE-2026-4600 is a critical vulnerability in jsrsasign, published on 23 Mar 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Official description
Versions of the package jsrsasign before 11.1.1 are vulnerable to Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature via the DSA domain-parameter validation in KJUR.crypto.DSA.setPublic (and the related DSA/X509 verification flow in src/dsa-2.0.js). An attacker can forge DSA signatures or X.509 certificates that X509.verifySignature() accepts by supplying malicious domain parameters such as g=1, y=1, and a fixed r=1, which make the verification equation true for any hash.
Weakness: CWE-347
