CVE-2024-40648: matrix-sdk-crypto's `UserIdentity::is_verified` not checking verification status of own user identity while performing the check

July 18, 2024 (updated July 19, 2024)

The UserIdentity::is_verified() method in the matrix-sdk-crypto crate before version 0.7.2 doesn’t take into account the verification status of the user’s own identity while performing the check and may as a result return a value contrary to what is implied by its name and documentation.
