<title>GnuTLS: RSA Signature Forgery</title>
<synopsis>
GnuTLS fails to handle excess data which could allow an attacker to forge a
PKCS #1 v1.5 signature.

<background>
<p>
GnuTLS is an implementation of SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>
verify.c fails to properly handle excess data in
digestAlgorithm.parameters field while generating a hash when using an
RSA key with exponent 3. RSA keys that use exponent 3 are commonplace.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
Remote attackers could forge PKCS #1 v1.5 signatures that are signed
with an RSA key, preventing GnuTLS from correctly verifying X.509 and
other certificates that use PKCS.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All GnuTLS users should update both packages:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --update --ask --verbose ">=net-libs/gnutls-1.4.4"</code>
</resolution>
