| Incorrect padding check
| Incorrect padding check
−
| The FIRM signature is using PKCS #1 padding, which mandates that the padding is all 0xFF bytes. This is not checked correctly, because it only checks whether none of the bytes in the padding are 0x00. This allows a signature to be crafted more easily (sighax)
+
| The signature has a flag byte that determines whether the padding should be checked. This makes you able to bruteforce the padding very easily, as only the flag byte has to be zero.
