Shamir secret sharing splits into t number of shares with a t-threshold. However, I can find no information online if this scheme provide integrity (or authentication for that matter, which I assume it does not).

Can an adversary forge a share? If not, what hard problem is he faced with. Is it due to the share should be indistinguishable from random (psuedorandom)?
