"A vulnerability was found in GnuTLS. The response times to malformed
ciphertexts in RSA-PSK ClientKeyExchange differ from the 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.
