YesWiki is a wiki system written in PHP. From version 4.6.2 to before version 4.6.6, HttpSignatureService::verifySignature() checks the result of PHP's opensslverify() with a loose boolean negation - if (!opensslverify(...)) { throw ... }. PHP's opensslverify has four possible return values: 1, 0, -1, and "false". The -1 row is the bypass: PHP's truthiness rules make -1 a truthy value, so !(-1) === false, the throw is skipped, and the controller proceeds to processActivity(). Any condition that makes OpenSSL's EVPVerifyFinal() return -1 triggers the bypass. The reachable consequence is the controller silently treats a failed verification as success and processes the attacker's payload. This issue has been patched in version 4.6.6.
