### Summary gitsign may select the wrong Rekor entry to use during online verification when multiple entries are returned by the log. ### Details gitsign uses Rekor's search API to fetch entries that apply to a signature being verified. The parameters used for the search are the public key and the payload. The search API returns entries that match _either_ condition rather than _both_.
