Yuval Yarom and Katrina Falkner discovered a timing-based information leak, known as Flush+Reload, that could be used to trace execution in programs. GnuPG and Libgcrypt followed different execution paths based on key-related data, which could be used to expose the contents of private keys.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
