CVE-2020-14966

22
FAUCET Score

CVE-2020-14966 is a high-severity vulnerability affecting the jsrsasign package through version 8.0.18 for Node.js, as well as several NetApp products. This flaw allows for malleability in ECDSA signatures due to insufficient checks for overflows in sequence length and appended/prepended '0' characters, enabling modified signatures to be validated as legitimate. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.5 (HIGH), indicating a network-exploitable issue with low attack complexity and a high impact on integrity, though it does not affect confidentiality or availability. Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage, suggesting a low immediate threat landscape.
