CVE-2024-49365

tiny-secp256k1 is a tiny secp256k1 native/JS wrapper. Prior to version 1.1.7, a malicious JSON-stringifyable message can be made passing on verify(), when global Buffer is the buffer package. This affects only environments where require('buffer') is the NPM buffer package. Buffer.isBuffer check can be bypassed, resulting in strange objects being accepted as a message, and those messages could trick verify() into returning false-positive true values. This issue has been patched in version 1.1.7.

Summary		(es) tiny-secp256k1 es un pequeño contenedor nativo/JS para secp256k1. Antes de la versión 1.1.7, se podía crear un mensaje malicioso que se pudiera convertir en cadena JSON al pasar por verify() cuando el paquete de búfer es global Búfer. Esto solo afecta a entornos donde require('búfer') es el paquete de búfer de NPM. Se puede omitir la comprobación de Buffer.isBuffer, lo que provoca que se acepten objetos extraños como mensaje, y estos mensajes podrían engañar a verify() para que devuelva valores verdaderos falsos positivos. Este problema se ha corregido en la versión 1.1.7.
