Description SMASH SMASH 2024-01-16 16:19:34 UTC

A vulnerability was found in GnuTLS. The response times to malformed ciphertexts in RSA-PSK ClientKeyExchange differ from response times of ciphertexts with correct PKCS#1 v1.5 padding. This issue may allow a remote attacker to perform a timing side-channel attack in the RSA-PSK key exchange, potentially leading to the leakage of sensitive data. CVE-2024-0553 is designated as an incomplete resolution for CVE-2023-5981.

Comment 27 Andrea Mattiazzo 2024-07-16 16:00:03 UTC

Tracking gnutls in:
- SUSE:SLE-12-SP5:Update
- SUSE:SLE-12-SP3:Update

as WONT FIX since is too hard and risky backporting the patch of the vulnerability

Comment 28 Andrea Mattiazzo 2024-07-16 16:02:53 UTC

All done, closing.
