SigSpoof
Appearance
SigSpoof is a family of vulnerabilities that affected the software package GNU Privacy Guard ("GnuPG"). Some other software packages that make use of GnuPG were also affected, such as Pass.[1]
In unpatched versions of affected software, SigSpoof attacks allow cryptographic signatures to be convincingly spoofed, under certain circumstances. This potentially enables a wide range of subsidiary attacks to succeed.[2][3][1][4][5]
