SUSE-SU-2018:3392-1 Security update for python-cryptography

This update for python-cryptography fixes the following issues: - CVE-2018-10903: The finalizewithtag API did not enforce a minimum tag length. If a user did not validate the input length prior to passing it to finalizewithtag an attacker could craft an invalid payload with a shortened tag e.g. 1...

Is FIDO the future instrument to prove our identity?

FIDO, short for Fast IDentity Online, is an industry consortium started in 2013 to address the lack of interoperability among strong authentication devices and the problems users face creating and remembering multiple usernames and passwords. Among the founders were those who work in the financia...

GHSA-W285-WF9Q-5W69 In Bouncy Castle JCE Provider the ECIES implementation allowed the use of ECB mode

In the Bouncy Castle JCE Provider version 1.55 and earlier the ECIES implementation allowed the use of ECB mode. This mode is regarded as unsafe and support for it has been removed from the provider...

GHSA-R9CH-M4FH-FC7Q Moderate severity vulnerability that affects org.bouncycastle:bcprov-jdk14 and org.bouncycastle:bcprov-jdk15

In the Bouncy Castle JCE Provider version 1.55 and earlier DSA signature generation is vulnerable to timing attack. Where timings can be closely observed for the generation of signatures, the lack of blinding in 1.55, or earlier, may allow an attacker to gain information about the signature's k...

GHSA-R97X-3G8F-GX3M The Bouncy Castle JCE Provider carry a propagation bug

In the Bouncy Castle JCE Provider versions 1.51 to 1.55, a carry propagation bug was introduced in the implementation of squaring for several raw math classes have been fixed org.bouncycastle.math.raw.Nat???. These classes are used by our custom elliptic curve implementations...

bouncycastle: DHIES/ECIES CBC modes are vulnerable to padding oracle attack

In the Bouncy Castle JCE Provider version 1.55 and earlier the DHIES/ECIES CBC mode vulnerable to padding oracle attack. For BC 1.55 and older, in an environment where timings can be easily observed, it is possible with enough observations to identify when the decryption is failing due to padding...

bouncycastle: Information leak in AESFastEngine class

In the Bouncy Castle JCE Provider version 1.55 and earlier the primary engine class used for AES was AESFastEngine. Due to the highly table driven approach used in the algorithm it turns out that if the data channel on the CPU can be monitored the lookup table accesses are sufficient to leak...

PCI & QID 38598 “Deprecated Public Key Length”

QID 38598 “Deprecated Public Key Length” will be marked as PCI Fail as of November 1, 2018 in accordance with its CVSS score. Under PCI DSS merchants and financial institutions are required to protect their clients' sensitive data with strong cryptography. Strong cryptography is defined in the...

New Findings About Prime Number Distribution Almost Certainly Irrelevant to Cryptography

Lots of people are e-mailing me about this new result on the distribution of prime numbers. While interesting, it has nothing to do with cryptography. Cryptographers aren't interested in how to find prime numbers, or even in the distribution of prime numbers. Public-key cryptography algorithms li...

Security Bulletin: IBM Data Science Experience Local is affected by a cryptography vulnerability

Summary IBM Data Science Experience local has addressed the following vulnerability. IBM Data Science Experience Local implements insecure algorithms for encrypting external data source credentials. Vulnerability Details CVEID: Not Applicable DESCRIPTION: No CVE description. CVSS Base Score: 6.3...

Quantum Computing and Cryptography

Quantum computing is a new way of computing -- one that could allow humankind to perform computations that are simply impossible using today's computing technologies. It allows for very fast searching, something that would break some of the encryption algorithms we use today. And it allows us to...
