This leads to valid signatures being rejected. Legitimate transactions or communications may be incorrectly flagged as invalid.","affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/indutny/elliptic","events":[{"introduced":"7379975fcb3a6c7cc3c9933c7dc875ec532ee810"},{"last_affected":"7379975fcb3a6c7cc3c9933c7dc875ec532ee810"}],"database_specific":{"cpe":"cpe:2.3:a:indutny:elliptic:6.5.7:*:*:*:*:node.js:*:*","extracted_events":[{"introduced":"6.5.7"},{"last_affected":"6.5.7"}],"source":"CPE_STRING"}}],"versions":["6.5.7"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2024-48948.json"}}],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/48xxx/CVE-2024-48948.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-48948"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20241220-0004/"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/indutny/elliptic/issues/321"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/indutny/elliptic/pull/322"},{"type":"ARTICLE","url":"https://blog.trailofbits.com/2025/11/18/we-found-cryptography-bugs-in-the-elliptic-library-using-wycheproof/"}],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"mitre","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/48xxx/CVE-2024-48948.json"},"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L"}]}
