Severity ?
4.3 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:N
Summary
The implementation of EdDSA in EdDSA-Java (aka ed25519-java) through 0.3.0 exhibits signature malleability and does not satisfy the SUF-CMA (Strong Existential Unforgeability under Chosen Message Attacks) property. This allows attackers to create new valid signatures different from previous signatures for a known message.
