Updated:May 14, 2026
Impact The ""verifyVerifiableCredential()"" (https://github.com/rabobank-blockchain/vp-toolkit/blob/master/src/service/signers/verifiable-credential-signer.ts#L57) method check the cryptographic integrity of the Verifiable Credential, but it does not check if the ""credential.issuer"" (https://github.com/rabobank-blockchain/vp-toolkit-models/blob/develop/src/model/verifiable-credential.ts#L129) DID matches the signer of the credential. The verifier is impacted by this vulnerability. Patches Patch will be available in version 0.2.2. Workarounds In case you trust certain issuers for certain credentials as a verifier, trust the issuer's public key from the "credential.proof.verificationMethod" field.
