18+ # Panic in Signature Hint Decoding During Verification
19+
20+ During ML-DSA verification the serialized hint values are decoded as
21+ specified in algorithm 22 ` HintBitUnpack ` of [ FIPS 204, subsection
22+ 7.1] ( https://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/FIPS/NIST.FIPS.204.pdf#%5B%7B%22num%22%3A120%2C%22gen%22%3A0%7D%2C%7B%22name%22%3A%22FitH%22%7D%2C657%5D ) . The
23+ algorithm requires that the cumulative hint counters per row of the
24+ hint vector are strictly increasing and below a maximum value which
25+ depends on the choice of ML-DSA parameter set (line 4).
26+
27+ In libcrux-ml-dsa, hint decoding did not check the boundedness of the
28+ cumulative hint counter of the last row of the hint vector.
29+
30+ ## Impact
31+ A manipulated invalid hint can cause an out-of-bounds memory access
32+ since the hint decoding logic may attempt to read outside the bounds
33+ of the serialized signature, causing a runtime panic.
34+
35+ ## Mitigation
36+ Starting from version ` 0.0.8 ` , hint decoding will check the cumulative
37+ hint counter of the last row as well.
You can’t perform that action at this time.
