-## [1.10.3] - 2026-02-06

-### Security
-
-- Fix an issue where blocklist bypass is possible when using curve P256 since the signature can have 2 valid representations.
-  Both fingerprint representations will be tested against the blocklist.
-  Any newly issued P256 based certificates will have their signature clamped to the low-s form.
-  Nebula will assert the low-s signature form when validating certificates in a future version. [GHSA-69x3-g4r3-p962](https://github.com/slackhq/nebula/security/advisories/GHSA-69x3-g4r3-p962)
