CVE-2025-59058 — Vulnerability in httpsig — CVE Details

### Summary HMAC signature comparison is not timing-safe and is vulnerable to timing attacks. ### Details `SharedKey::sign()` returns a `Vec<u8>` which has a non-constant-time equality implementation. `Hmac::finalize()` returns a constant-time wrapper ([`CtOutput`](https://docs.rs/digest/0.10.7/digest/struct.CtOutput.html)) which was discarded. Alternatively, `Hmac` has a constant-time `verify()` method. The problem reported here is due to the following lines in `SharedKey::sign()` of the previous code: ```rust let mut mac = HmacSha256::new_from_slice(key).unwrap(); mac.update(data); Ok(mac.finalize().into_bytes().to_vec()) ``` and the merged update changes the third line to directly verify with `verify_slice`. ### Impact Anyone who uses HS256 signature verification is vulnerably to Timing Attack that allows the attacker to forge a signature.
