Prior to version 0.13.0, not signing and verifying `$\\mathsf{cid}$` allows an attacker (which must be a participant of this head) to use a snapshot from an old head instance with the same participants to close the head or contest the state with it. This can lead to an incorrect distribution of value (= value extraction attack; hard, but possible) or prevent the head to finalize because the value available is not consistent with the closed utxo state (= denial of service; easy). A patch is planned for version 0.13.0. As a workaround, rotate keys between heads so not to re-use keys and not result in the same multi-signature participants." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "CWE-347: Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature", "cweId": "CWE-347" } ] } ] }, "affects": { "vendor": { "vendor_data": [ { "vendor_name": "input-output-hk", "product": { "product_data": [ { "product_name": "hydra", "version": { "version_data": [ { "version_affected": "=", "version_value": "< 0.13.0" } ] } } ] } } ] } }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "url": "https://github.com/input-output-hk/hydra/security/advisories/GHSA-gr36-mc6v-72qq", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://github.com/input-output-hk/hydra/security/advisories/GHSA-gr36-mc6v-72qq" }, { "url": "https://github.com/input-output-hk/hydra/blob/ec6c7a2ab651462228475d0b34264e9a182c22bb/hydra-node/src/Hydra/HeadLogic.hs#L357", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://github.com/input-output-hk/hydra/blob/ec6c7a2ab651462228475d0b34264e9a182c22bb/hydra-node/src/Hydra/HeadLogic.hs#L357" }, { "url": "https://github.com/input-output-hk/hydra/blob/ec6c7a2ab651462228475d0b34264e9a182c22bb/hydra-node/src/Hydra/Snapshot.hs#L50-L54", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://github.com/input-output-hk/hydra/blob/ec6c7a2ab651462228475d0b34264e9a182c22bb/hydra-node/src/Hydra/Snapshot.hs#L50-L54" }, { "url": "https://github.com/input-output-hk/hydra/blob/ec6c7a2ab651462228475d0b34264e9a182c22bb/hydra-plutus/src/Hydra/Contract/Head.hs#L583-L599", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://github.com/input-output-hk/hydra/blob/ec6c7a2ab651462228475d0b34264e9a182c22bb/hydra-plutus/src/Hydra/Contract/Head.hs#L583-L599" } ] }, "source": { "advisory": "GHSA-gr36-mc6v-72qq", "discovery": "UNKNOWN" }, "impact": { "cvss": [ { "attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 6.5, "baseSeverity": "MEDIUM", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "HIGH", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H", "version": "3.1" } ] } }
