Overview

vp-toolkit is a TypeScript/JavaScript API generating and signing w3c verifiable credentials and related objects.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Access Control. The verifyVerifiableCredential() method checks the cryptographic integrity of the Verifiable Credential, but it does not check if the credential.issuer matches the signer of the credential.
