CVE-2009-1416

Publication date 30 April 2009

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

lib/gnutls_pk.c in libgnutls in GnuTLS 2.5.0 through 2.6.5 generates RSA keys stored in DSA structures, instead of the intended DSA keys, which might allow remote attackers to spoof signatures on certificates or have unspecified other impact by leveraging an invalid DSA key.
