| Description |
| In verify_emsa_pkcs1_signature() in gmp_rsa_public_key.c in the gmp
plugin in strongSwan 4.x and 5.x before 5.7.0, the RSA implementation
based on GMP does not reject excess data after the encoded algorithm
OID during PKCS#1 v1.5 signature verification. Similar to the flaw in
the same version of strongSwan regarding digestAlgorithm.parameters, a
remote attacker can forge signatures when small public exponents are
being used, which could lead to impersonation when only an RSA
signature is used for IKEv2 authentication.
