CVE-2020-0601

Microsoft Windows CryptoAPI Spoofing Vulnerability

Summary

Microsoft Windows CryptoAPI (Crypt32.dll) contains a spoofing vulnerability in the way it validates Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) certificates. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by using a spoofed code-signing certificate to sign a malicious executable, making it appear the file was from a trusted, legitimate source. A successful exploit could also allow the attacker to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks and decrypt confidential information on user connections to the affected software. The vulnerability is also known under the moniker of CurveBall.

Classification

This CVE has no priority classification because it was imported directly from the CISA KEV catalog without running the AI analysis pipeline. CISA KEV listing implies active exploitation in the wild; treat with the urgency that implies.
