Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

sigstore-go versions before 1.2.1 do not check a bundle's signing time against the validity window of a self-managed long-lived key wrapped in an ExpiringKey. An attacker who holds expired key material could sign bundles that verification still accepts, though the issue affects only this long-lived key workflow and not certificate-based deployments. Upgrade to sigstore-go 1.2.1 or later.
